    The Clevo M860TU / Sager NP8660TU do not seem to support Hitachi's Bulk Data Encryption.

    My M860TU came w/ BIOS V 1.00.05 and KBC/EC Firmware V 1.00.04. I am using the Hitachi HTS722020K9S hard drive.

    Does anyone know where I can find the latest BIOS upgrade/patch?
    I've already looked at www.clevo.com

    you must contact you vendor for such updates.

    the M860TU is extremely new, so a new BIOS/firmware revision probably wont come up for awhile.. or until its needed for a fix or improvement.
