James, What I'm angling at is a firmware file name like: aic94xx-seq_10c6.req and the driver attempts to read: aic94xx-seq*.req If there a multiple matches then it takes the one with the most recent date (reporting this in syslog). For the benefit of others: in my experience the stability of my adaptec 48300 SAS HBA is somewhat related to the firmware level it is running (both the card BIOS and when the linux driver has taken over).
