Why do you think you need new firmware for the drive? Is there a problem with the drive? I've rarely seen new firmware fix issues. I've seen it introduce lots of new issues though.

Anyhow, don't do it if no problems. Post a comment if you need more help :)

Try running System Restore to a day just before this failed. It's a software issue according to other forum posts elsewhere.
