changelog:
  -     This firmware revision corrects a rare situation where a Cryptographic Erase
      could result in random data instead of the expected deterministic zeros. This
      is judged as low severity because it does not compromise user data or
      security, but justifies the update to preclude potential security concerns.
      There are several items that reduce the probability of hangs and provide some
      minor performance improvements.

changelog:
  -      This firmware revision improves data integrity and reliability by optimizing adjacent track refresh parameters and management of emergency power loss table structure.
        * The risk of not upgrading to this firmware is the increased possibility of data corruption in emergency power loss events.
        * Several maintenance items are included in this firmware revision that reduce the probability of hangs and provide some minor performance improvements.
