On my system (running Samsung SATA drives connected directly to the on-board Intel SATA controller), I can obtain the HDD FW revision via the NMV Web GUI: Settings->Disks

  • In the "Model" field of the "All Disks" table, I have entries as follows: "SAMSUNG, Rev. 1AQ10001"

Thanks for your hint, but unfortunately, this field is empty. I could read the firmware while I had linux on this server...

Could you post output of following cmds:

# hddisco
# prtconf -v

You need to run the cmds in bash

Thanks.

I am not sure but it seems 'revision' in 'hddisco' output or 'inquiry-revision-id' in 'prtconf -v' output is firmware.

Unfortunately not, the Firmware of WD2002FYPS-02W3B is 4.05G04.

I see we added functionality to read FW revision in new versions of NM*. So i think this functionality will be available in next releases.
