Do Intel SSD drives have appropriate Arm64 tooling to allow us to do an in-place firmware upgrade?

We use these drives (Intel Part Number: SSDSC2BB012T701 - 1.2 TB SATA SSD, and SSDPE2KE016T7 - 1.6 TB 2.5 NVMe SSD) in our Arm64 Server (Lenovo HR350A). Wondering if Intel drives have appropriate Arm64 tooling to allow us to do an in-place firmware upgrade? We would like to avoid physically pulling drives and attaching them to an x86 system to upgrade the firmware. Basically do you have a firmware upgrade tool for the Arm64 Servers?
Thanks

Hi Josh,
I received e-mail with Subject "** FIRMWARE update needed ** - Intel SATA SSDs S4610 & S4510, *only* with sizes 1.92TB & 3.84TB"
I have a mixed heterogeneous environment with various hardware. Among them I have 4 qty R281-T94 nodes with a total of 16 qty 1.92TB S4610's.
Running Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS with 4.15.0-72-generic aarch64.
Any suggestions on how to update all the drives? All are affected.
