What are your thoughts regarding these parameters above.

Thanks / Ed
Ed,

Here is my information from the about screen on the server:

Model Software Hardware Server # BIOS
2000 series 4.0.860 (US) 2.0.0 #### 2.0.282

I started out with version 3.4.x. I was able to install the upgrade to 4.x and then installed the new drive, one at a time. I know there are many post about doing various steps but took the KISS (keep it simple stupid) approach first and it worked.
I was in the same boat, did I spend the cash on two drives that may or may not work. I bought my 160 at Fry's for $99.00 with $40.00 rebates.
