[rescue] Pull firmware from Seagate SCSI disk to put into another one

[Ian Finder]

Is there an eeprom on the drives, and one available from an equivalent
cray drive?

I cloned the eeproms on a StoneWire array drive set to replace the
drives with the Seagate OEM versions of the same model, and it worked
fine.
