Hi,
Sorry for sort-of double-posting but I figured this wasn't a coreboot question so it shouldn't have been in that thread (can't delete my post there)
Does anyone know which specific flash chip is used for the BIOS / EC on the X210 board or could look at theirs and let me know?
Cheers,
R

Re: Which BIOS / flash chip is used on the X210?
Similarly, if anyone can post the 51nb X210 3rd batch BIOS bin that would be fantastic!
I asked jacky for it and he said he will upload it on his site, I'm worried though as I accidentally flashed the 1st batch BIOS update he had posted and have simply left the system running for 4 days while I wait.
Thanks much

My X210 3rd batch uses MX25L6473E as its BIOS chip.

Mine used MX25L6408E, i fried it and replaced it with a W25Q64FW that works.
51nb X210 with community EC mod, me_cleaner and recelled 99W*h battery; X230 with coreboot, me_cleaner and nitrocaster's FHD mod as a backup; R500 for guests; T60 just for the looks.
