BIOS 2.13.0 is released recently on 26th April. Dell Catalog update will happen in regular interval and based on release data catalog may carry latest or N-1 FW. Next catalog update will have latest BIOS FW for T330.

For HBA330 latest FW supported for T330 is 13.17.03.05. That is the reason downloads.dell.com is showing that as latest version. 16.17.01.00 is not supported on T330
