1.1.2 Driver Updates
Because Avago regularly updates device drivers, a feature might be added to your driver that is not included in the
most recent documentation. If you have a question about a feature, consult the
readme file that accompanies the
driver, or contact your MegaRAID support representative. Be sure to use the latest service packs provided by the
OS manufacturer.
You can download the latest drivers and software on the company website at
http://www.lsi.com/support/Pages/download-search.aspx . Under the Download tab, select your product from the
pull-down list to display the latest drivers available for download.
1.2 Driver Names
The following table lists the device driver files, driver RPM and driver ISO® support, and driver deb package for the
MegaRAID controllers.
These files are available on the Universal Driver Suite CD that accompanied your MegaRAID controller. Avago updates
the MegaRAID device drivers frequently. To make sure that you have the current version of these driver files, download
the latest files from the company website at
http://www.lsi.com/support/Pages/download-search.aspx . Refer to the
readme file that accompanies the driver for any updated information.
To make a driver diskette, extract the files from the Universal Driver Suite CD to a blank diskette, or download the driver
files from the company website and extract them to an empty diskette. Label the diskette as the MegaRAID driver
diskette for the given OS.
