I download the firmware update utility file "DELL_MULTI-DEVICE_A32_R309165.exe" and double click on the file, then follow the instruction to create a Dell Multi-Device A32 R309165 Diagnostic Version SAS_SATA Bootable CD.
The system was running fine. I am just from time to time check Dell support web site to see if there are critical or dell recommended firmware/driver updates. I found this SAS_SATA firmware update recommended by Dell support, and that was how I found the problem of "could not find the diagnostics rebug section header!" error message.

Hi ydengnus,
Does the hardware firmware update create the bootable disc? Or did you put the firmware utility on your own bootable disc?

I would try it again but use a flash drive instead of a CD.

Are you having a specific problem that this firmware is needed to fix?
