7 ATTO Technology ExpressPCI FCSW and FC 2600 Installation and Operation Manual
4 Installing/updating device drivers and firmware
ExpressPCI FC host adapters require device drivers and firmware for proper operation. Your adapter
firmware was properly flashed before shipment, but the firmware may need to be updated as new
versions become available, or if the factory-installed version becomes corrupt. Visit the ATTO website,
www.attotech.com, to download the latest drivers and firmware.
ATTO recommends using the same device driver
and firmware version. To verify the version:
Windows Use the ATTO ExpressPCI
Configuration Tool for complete information
about the driver and firmware version or use a
combination of the adapter boot string (firmware
version) during system boot and the Device
Manager (driver version)
Mac OS X Use the ATTO ExpressPCI
Configuration Tool (driver and firmware version
available) or Apple System Profiler (driver
version only)
