Most of the time the firmware updates are platform agnostic inside the drive, but they only have installers that run under Windows. I have updated my Linux and Mac drives several times by plugging them into Windows and running the installers. It's always worked, and several times it cured annoying problems. I always write the manufacturer complaining about the extra hoop they made me jump through to fix problems with the product they sold me. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
