Areca has posted a firmware update at ftp://ftp.areca.com.tw/RaidCards/BIOS_Firmware/ARC1680/Beta, labeled 145-80915: "2008/09/16 -- beta firmware add 2 features 1. SATA hard drive firmware update feature (transport firmware must update to 4.4.3.E)" Does anyone know if this is the elusive SMART support we've all been waiting for? Or not? Cheers, Dave |

First of all I'd like to say props for all the hard work getting Areca controllers to work. I'm also using the ARC-1261ML, but I couldn't find firmware version 1.46 (mentioned in the man page) on the areca ftp. Is it possible for me to get a copy of that? Or perhaps my "not an ATA/ATAPI device" errors are due to some noob mistake and not the firmware...I'm relatively new to this so bear with me. I'm using the drives in pass through mode, if that makes any difference. Thanks, Lawrence |

I've forwarded this message to the people at Areca. I have experimental firmware from them, but can not redistribute it.

Dear Smartmontools Users, This is a follow-up to the correspondence below. I've had some corresondence with Areca. Areca hopes to do the public release of 1.46 firmware in about one week.

According to Areca: We have put 1.46 on the Beta directory for each SATA RAID adapter. Such as the ARC-1110 is on the following Ftp: ftp://ftp.areca.com.tw/RaidCards/BIOS_Firmware/ARC1110/Beta/ Cheers, Bruce On Tue, 30 Sep 2008, David Liontooth wrote: > Areca has posted a firmware update at > ftp://ftp.areca.com.tw/RaidCards/BIOS_Firmware/ARC1680/Beta, labeled > 145-80915: > > "2008/09/16 -- beta firmware add 2 features > 1.

Hi Steve, That's good news! By the way, are you using the '-d areca,N' option? Does it work OK for you?
