BIOS .bin 256 KB Shared

Small 256 KB binary labelled z530n, probably a Lenovo Z530-series image, though the name states no brand or board number. A dump this size is far too small for a full system BIOS and is typically the contents of a secondary flash such as the embedded controller or keyboard controller chip. Check the part number of the small SPI chip on the board to confirm its capacity matches 256 KB. Save the original contents before writing and use this image together with the matching main BIOS read.
