I have received information from a few sources that indicates that Adaptec does not have documentation on their management interface in-house. They only have a source-code implimentation, for a variety of models. So that is perhaps why they are so slow. That does however speak rather badly. I have not encountered a vendor without even internal documentation for their products in quite a while. Companies you've probably rarely heard of like Zydas, Atmel, Symbol have documentation for their wireless chipsets. The Adaptec SCSI chipset documentation that we dragged out of Adaptec about 8 years ago or so was 12 books. I hope this is not true. Any ex-Adaptec employees want to set the record straight (and please tell the truth..)
