i am still needing help on the firmware issue , i posted a question on the firmware and it was closed due to multi-posting . i thought as long as teh question was differnt it was ok . but my question is what is the current firmware for the optiarc ad 7200s , i think i have 101a but the site offers 1.06 do i need to upgrade or is what i have fine

ok , i just figured out that this is a oem drive that came from dell . it is a optiarc ad7200s that had firmware 101a and dell had a firmware upgrade to 102a . i had to get the firmware update from dell themselves , i guess 102a would be the current firmware . thanks
