BIOS Recovery

It is unlikely that anything will interrupt a BIOS update; however, if an interruption occurs, the
BIOS could be damaged. Table 14 lists the drives and media types that can and cannot be used
for BIOS recovery. The BIOS recovery media plugged into a compatible device does not need to
be made bootable.
