That doesn't mean that you have to flash firmware onto LSI controller every so often after you placed controller into production because original version of firmware is crap, and updated version will turn out to be crap several Months after its release, and so on. You did have nice thing before you flashed, which alas was different hardware from what you needed. You flashed different version to modify hardware. And after that the hardware was exactly what you needed it to be. And from this point on you don't need to flash it, unless you decide to change its functions to what they were with original firmware.
for some unfathomable reason, IT (initiator-terminator) internal SAS cards are nearly unobtanium. The external ones cost stupid money, at least as expensive as high end SAS raid cards, and I really don't understand it.
ok, I do understand it... MS Windows prefers using hardware raid since the built in storage management is dreadful.
