Abstract: Storage drives can be configured to provide a component ID. An update tool on an end user device can be configured to retrieve this component ID in response to receiving a catalog that defines available firmware updates and to use the retrieved component ID to dynamically identify which firmware update applies to a particular storage drive. The firmware update can then be installed on the storage drive. The update tool may also perform a health assessment to dynamically determine whether the storage drive's health is sufficient to proceed with a firmware update.

Abstract: An information handling system may include at least one processor; and a Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) solid state drive (SSD) communicatively coupled to the at least one processor; wherein the information handling system is configured to: collect telemetry information regarding the information handling system; and log the telemetry information in a vendor-specific portion of the NVMe SSD via an NVMe set command.

Abstract: In one or more embodiments, one or more systems, methods, and/or processes may receive a first device identification from a first device of a first information handling system; determine an identification associated with the first information handling system; determine a first identifier based at least on the identification associated with the first information handling system and the first device identification; provide the first identifier, based at least on the identification associated with the first information handling system and the first device identification, and a first version identification of a first firmware associated with the first device of the first information handling system to a second information handling system, different from the first information handling system, via a network; and receive a second firmware, different from the first firmware, via the network. In one or more embodiments, the second firmware may be installed to the first device.

Abstract: A solid state drive (SSD) device includes a Peripheral Component Interconnect-Express (PCIe) interface, a non-volatile storage media, and a memory that stores code, the code including an Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) controller, and a Non-Volatile Memory-Express (NVMe) controller. The SSD device is operable to select one of the AHCI controller and the NVMe controller to process data storage commands between the PCIe interface and the non-volatile storage media.
