I havent updated my Areca boxes in a bit, but I recall just dropping the source code in place of what was there and recompiling. I was also told by Areca to make sure I had the latest firmware at the time too. I asked the Areca people what their plans were for the driver on the website and they said they submitted the driver to be merged into the tree, but either didnt email the right people, or no one had time to do the merge/import.
