BIOS .rar 7.80 MB Shared

BIOS image for the Apple iMac 27-inch Late 2013, logic board 820-3481-A, compressed in a 7.80 MB RAR. Apple numbers its boards in the 820-xxxx format, with the letter suffix denoting revision. Such a dump is written to the EFI/boot ROM SPI chip with a programmer when the firmware is damaged or locked. Apple ROMs contain machine-specific data such as serial number, so dump and keep the original chip contents first and check the image size against the chip capacity.
