| Zusammenfassung: | Information handling system hard disk drive firmware updates are initiated on a hard disk drive without disrupting operations of the information handling system. A firmware update is copied in executable form to the hard disk drive's buffer and executed by the hard disk drive's controller without aborting queued tasks or losing system synchronization. The controller then copies the firmware update to flash memory in parallel with execution of the firmware update so that the hard disk drive operates with minimal degradation in performance. |
