    Dont know if this was posted or not. This helped out a friend of mine though hopefully it can help out someone else.

    Lowtech found the answer for the rubber jacketed Seagate ST310211A 10GB drive.

    <a
    href="http://www.llamma.com/xbox/download/firmw.rar">Download</a> firmw.rar and unpack it, then boot to a dos boot disc with the files from the archive on it.

    There must be four files in addition to the system boot files on the boot disc:
    u5339.ovl
    u5339.fls
    u5339.crt
    sf.exe

    Plug your Seagate into an available IDE channel

    Execute the command "SF -v -f U5339 -m U5"

    It will scan all channels for the drive and when it finds it, it will flash it with the same firmware that is already on it. This has a side effect of the drive becoming unlocked.
