Recovering the BIOS
It is unlikely that anything will interrupt a BIOS update; however, if an interruption
occurs, the BIOS could be damaged. Table 14 lists the drives and media types that
can and cannot be
used for BIOS recovery. The BIOS recovery media does not have
to be bootable.
Table 14. Acceptable Drives/Media Types for BIOS Recovery
Media Type Can be Used for BIOS Recovery?
CD-ROM drive connected to the SATA interface Yes
USB removable drive (a USB Flash Drive, for example) Yes
USB diskette drive (with a 1.44 MB diskette) No
USB hard disk drive No
