The whole Adaptec site is, AFAIKT, a maze+moustrap. No matter what you want to find, you get shunted to a screen telling you how they are are improving things. Yea, sure.

But when you send a query, you get told Pay Up First. When I asked about the Snap Assist download, I got told I had to phone, and spend 30+min on hold to reach somone who FINALLY let me d/l it.

Now I need the JVM, and the 3.4.803->??? updates..

My question is: is it worth my time to call and wait? Or will they just say Pay Up?

Is there some non-waiting way to find the {allegedly free} update [not upgrade] on the site?
