Konica Minolta Bizhub i series storage board (STRGB)

That is a really really old firmware. Are you asking for that version for the boot rom update? That key sequence works all the way up to the newest firmware from Konica. No need to use the old one.

ok.... I tried and it worked.... I have a problem loading the firmware of the mfp controller N G and the machine doesn't start

The only thing that boot rom update is going to do is add support for additional SSDs from Konica. It's likely your SSD is bad. Have you run the diagnostic firmware?

I ran it but it doesn't start, I don't know if the firmware is ok....
could you send me the firmware for the c300i thanks

Our observations show that STRGB is damaged like a regular SSD or blocked to write as a result of unauthorized action.We use disks from a source other than KM and the problem disappeared. There is no need to format and delete partitions on the PC, I don't really understand what the need is.

Hi, can you let me know what SSD brand/model you use?

FYI, Konica vendor locks them....
A Kioxia KBG4AZNS256G is what Konica calls the "112-layer storage board". There are Phison, and Nanya boards too. However, I only have the Kioxia on my desk right now. it may require updating your boot rom.

Ok thanks, I thought your post said you use other brand disks?:

No, that was plus-Copy. I can tell you from experience that you have to use M.2 SSDs in the "approved" list and no they don't give us a list....We've had to figure it out by taking copiers apart. You will be able to install the firmware on a non-approved SSD but the copier will not actually boot. The boot firmware will stop you. I have not tried in the latest releases of the boot firmware but I suspect Konica would not want to remove that restriction. SD cards on the other hand....are free game. No restrictions other than size there.

As far as formatting storage goes, as long as it wasn't used in another Konica the firmware updater will format the disks with the right partitions for the copier. When we get replacements they come completely blank from Konica.

Formatting the disk blank comes into play when you are trying to use used parts from other copiers.

Hello.
It's been a while since I visited.
What a pity.
I can't write because of the red warning.
Please change to a new storage.
It can't be used as a general PC storage.
1. Prepare a new storage.
2. Connect the storage board to the reader.
3. Format to FAT32.
4. Run the firmware Storage controller/CPU controller/MFP/printer.
5. Power OFF/ON
