More positive experiences are good to know, thanks.
Yes hard drive firmware updates can be essential sometimes like the
2tb Samsung ecogreen
that i bought which had some data loss bug solved by a firmware update.
There is a firmware update for the T60 hard drive on the Lenovo web site.
Of course the hard drive in a 5 year old laptop could be a
replacement so I think i would
be better looking at the HDs manufacturers web site to see if there
are any firmware
updates required.

My own experiences mirror what Chris had stated - never bricked a
ThinkPad while updating the BIOS.
I have bricked a couple with BIOS hacks, though - but that's a whole
another matter.
I stay away from firmware updates if the device performs well,
unless it's a hard drive.
YMMV.
