Getting back to being notified... My 5.0 general release update
documents and a letter from my PSS rep both said that the
firmware should be updated to 10.7 (SCSI DDS). My local HP SE
told me that this means it must be 10.7, not be at least 10.7.
Did everyone getting the general release get this notice (I know
not everyone has a PSS rep or a local HP SE that talks to you...).
