I want to update the firmware, bios, and boot code in my areca ARC-1210 raid controller and am a bit hesitant to do it for lack of any experience updating this card. I want to use the areca-cli program to do this and I see that the sys command appears to support updating the firmware (via the "sys updatefw" command), but I don't know if I can use this to update the bios and boot code as well or not. Can someone help me out on this? Also, is it ok to do this update while the system is up and using the card? Thanks, Bob -- Bob Willcox There are three ways to get something done: bob@immure.com 1: Do it yourself. Austin, TX 2: Hire someone to do it for you. 3: Forbid your kids to do it.
