Firmware Update

The firmware, BIOS and StorCon program of the Intel RAID Controller SRCU32 are stored in
Flash-RAM which is part of the Intel RAID Controller SRCU32 hardware. In contrast to
EPROMs, Flash-RAMs can be reprogrammed many times without the complicated UV-light
erasing procedure. Firmware, BIOS and StorCon are part of the SRC_PFW file. The file has an
extension (for example, SRC_PFW.009) which indicates the version stepping.
NOTE
This option is not available when StorCon is accessing the Intel RAID Controller SRCU32
remotely.

Intelligent Fault Bus

The Intelligent Fault Bus is an older subsystem standard, which is no longer used in modern
subsystems or backplanes. Intel RAID Controller SRCU32's Ultra/Wide Disk Array Controllers
were the last Intel RAID Controller SRCU32s supporting this standard, sometimes also called
"DEC Fault Bus."
