Hi,
I have a FAS250 filer with 14 Seagate 144 GB disks (Drive Part Number: X274_SCHT6146F10). Recently two of the disks failed, so I replaced them with Hitachi 144 GB disks (Drive Part Number: X274_HPYTA146F10), which has the same specs of X274_SCHT6146F10. But when the new disks were inserted, I got the following error messages:

I tried to update the disk firmware with "disk_fw_update", but it gives this error message:
fs1> disk_fw_update 0b.16
***** 2 disks have been identified as having an incorrect
***** firmware revision level.
***** Please consult the man pages for disk_fw_update
***** to upgrade the firmware on these disks.
Disk Firmware: No disks in primary FC loop eligible for download
I read the man page as well as the online manual, and I don't seem to find how to resolve the bad disk label error. Is there any way to fix the problem and use the new disks as spares? Or perhaps these disks are completely incompatible?
Thanks for any help you may provide.
Best regards,
-Al
