I have two old 515 pix firewalls and would like to upgrade them with the earliest software version. Actually when I give a "sh ver" in each, I get this information, but I`m not sure how to read how much flash it has. Also if I need a flash upgrade, would like to have flash part number.
Thanks for your help!
This is information I receive:

Good news! The "strata" indicates that you have 16MB of flash and can upgrade your software to something from this decade!
