Good afternoon
We encountered a problem, bought a batch of #INTEL DC P3600 disks on ebay and encountered a problem on ESXi 6+ versions, since they do not create a datastore, although they are detected by the syste
We tried all driver options, VIB`s for ESXi, but it does not accept the disk in the datastore because the firmware is not supported. Once it even happened that ESXi wrote that the INTEL SSD is not an INTEL SSD.

After a week of searching, we found out that the firmware that comes as the latest for these SSDs is 8DV101H0, but ours is 8DV1FF05. Someone wrote that this is actually DELL firmware...
Your utility does not allow you to update the firmware to the latest one, it says that everything is up to date or gives an alert that “no disks were found that can be updated”

Help me figure out how to downgrade the firmware or replace it with the latest one.

Dear iSoldat,

 

As we mentioned before, due to the fact your drive already has DELL firmware, we cannot initialize downgrading or updating of the firmware. For such operations, you should use the tools of those companies from which firmware comes.

If you have any questions or concerns with your drivers, please do not hesitate to contact us via  our Support Hub .

Kind regards,
