How can I know which drives do have this firmware? I would like to be
able to use the APS after the upgrade.<br>

IIUC there are a few Thinkpad models which require drives with
special firmware.  But the X61 is not among them.  Also some Thinkpads
prefer drives with special firmware and/or features like APS, but they
still work just fine with any drive (of the right size, obviously).
