MBA71 0178 B00

BIOS .fd 8.00 MB Shared

Raw 8 MB firmware image with the .fd extension, named MBA71_0178_B00, which follows the style of Apple EFI ROM naming where the prefix denotes the board family and the digits the firmware build. The name states no model beyond that code. Images like this are written to the SPI flash with a programmer to recover a machine that will not boot. Keep a copy of the original chip, which holds serial and system data, and confirm the chip capacity equals the 8 MB image.
