The instructions below apply to the contents of the .zip file named 'WDC_UPD'. 
The utility runs within DOS and is used to update WD drives that are connected to single or multiple 3Ware 7500-X IDE (Parallel ATA) RAID controllers.  

Note:  The tool will NOT work on a DOS console running under Windows.  


To update drives on a system with 3ware controllers the following steps must be taken:

1) Unzip WDC_UPD.ZIP onto bootable medium (floppy, CD-RW, network drive, etc.)
2) Boot the system to be updated to the medium where the update files were unzipped to.
3) Run WDcfgupd.bat
4) The utility will proceed to update all the drives on that controller.  This process takes approximately 1 min. per drive.
5) Once the update completes, re-boot the system.
6) Update is complete.
