Hardware version ID is a numeric identifier that is unique to every GD product model and version.

New ID format

New hardware id's (used in GD products starting from Argon/2013) have fixed formatting of 000AABBCC where AA=hardware model, BB=hardware version, CC=release number

  • Change in AA means completely different version (device type)
  • Change in BB means new features and possible some backwards incompatibility between versions - new number if functionality/specs modified
  • Change in CC means FW compatible HW - any modification in design changes this value

Same formatting applies to new FW versioning.
