OK, Here is another newby looking for the info of the Gods.

I have a dell 701N, that has been setting on my shelf for 3 months and I am trying to make it useful, currently it is:

Model: 701N
Software: 3.4.790 (US)
Hardware: 2.0.0
BIOS: 2.0.282

I have whzt I believe is a valid copy of 3.4.805, but whenever I try to upgrade it, I get the error that it is not a valid .sup file.
My first question is Will the Dell Branded 2000s upgrade to 3.4.805? So I can add larger drives, I have a pair of 250 gig WDs I have purchased especially for it.
Next Question: I contacted Adaptec about purchasing version 4.0.860 so I can get AD2003 support and was less than nicely told to shove off. So Is there anyplace I can purchase it?
Next Question: Is there a version of assist available besides the dell version as I cannot connect to it any longer with the version I have.
So, Is there anyone out there that can help me?
Is there a way to De OEM it?
