I used to work with the Supermicro Servers and used embedded and cards 
with OpenSolaris. The older firmware seems to have evaporated from 
Supermicro's ftp site.

When Supermicro stopped releasing newer versions, I used the matching 
LSI ones without issues.

I'll dig in my archives and see what info I can find.
