maria1984, if that drive came with your notebook, it is probably best to look for an update for that drive from the notebook manufacturer's website, as mciahel suggested. For example, if that is a Dell notebook, you search Dell's website for a firmware update for the drive. That kind of firmware update would surely work and does not involve the invalidating of your drive's warranty.

If the drive was an add on you bought on your own for your notebook, you have only got the option of trying to use the firmware for the GSA-4082B model, with all the risks that come with doing that.
