Non-Bootable BIOS Configuration: 

The HBA must be updated using the Quick BIOS download. This 

mode is only suitable for Windows and Linux PC’s. To update the

 

BIOS: 

 

Install the HBA (no drives attached) and boot the operating 
system. 

 

Download the Quick BIOS and extract the compressed file to 
a directory of your choice. 

 

Open the WebGUI. 

 

Click the Physical page tab 

 there is a Firmware update 

check box towards the bottom of the page. 

 

Input the Quick BIOS file name and click 

Submit 

to start the 

firmware update. 

Note: 

Do  not  cancel  the  update  process,  or  power 

down/restart the system until the update is complete. Doing 
so may damage the HBA. 

 

Shutdown and reboot the system. The HBA BIOS display 
should now be disabled, and the system should boot directly 
into the OS. 

 

If you are unable to use the WebGUI to update the Quick 
BIOS, please submit a support inquiry using our Online Web 
Support Portal. Support representatives will provide other 
methods to update the BIOS:
