HP BIOS Firmware Download
Hi,I have a HP ML110 G6 server and need to apply new BIOS, but according to HP website, it requires a entitlement. This is an old server that is being used for testing and I have no desire to pay for support to HP.
Is there a way to download BIOS update without Entitlement?
Thanks.

@AndyThat worked. After applying new BIOS, I saw HP Smart Array B110i SATA RAID Configuration.
But when I tried to install Windows 2012R2, during the installation process, it did not show my hard drive. So i downloaded the driver (HpAHClsr.inf) from USB and loaded it during Windows 2012R2 installation process, but still it would not show my 1TB Raid partition (that consists of two 1TB HDs in RAID 1).
Then I thought that I needed to create a logical volume off my 1TB logical drive, but I don't see anywhere in HP Smart Array B110i SATA RAID Configuration program in BIOS where I can create a logical volume.
I started with Experts Exchange in 2004 and it's been a mainstay of my professional computing life since. It helped me launch a career as a programmer / Oracle data analyst

@Andy,
Instead of dealing with built-in controller, I have decided to use LSI RAID Controller and it is working.
Thank you for providing the link.

In my case it was just a few dollars, but I did have to pay it to get the upgrade.
So, unless you know somebody with the exact same server or can find your BIOS update somewhere on the internet, then no, there won't be a way to download the BIOS update without paying for it.
