Save On Firmware Download

When you download firmware to the drive, you may see this dialog box:

As you work with a drive, all the changes you make are stored in the volatile memory within the drive. If you restart the drive or lose power to the drive, then any changes you made to the drive are lost. To save these changes, you can save the drive parameters to nonvolatile memory at any time. If you save the changes to the nonvolatile memory, these saved changes will be restored when the drive next powers up.

While you are connected to the drive, WorkBench monitors all of the changes that you make to the drive parameters. An asterisk in the navigation tree indicates that a parameter has been changed. If you do not change any drive parameters, this dialog box will not be shown.
