o Downloadable drivers for all supported operating systems at start.adaptec.com
(replaces physical media/DVD for creation of driver disks)
o Native support for 4K sector drives
For hard disk drives working in 4K native mode, the disk media
exposes its 4KB physical sector size to the controller firmware
and operating system. Support for 4KB logical sectors within
operating systems varies by vendor and OS version (for more
information, see the Adaptec Knowledge Base at http://ask.adaptec.com).
NOTE: Only uEFI systems can boot from a 4K sector drive. 4KB
sector drives are not supported as a boot device with Legacy BIOS.
o uEFI BIOS updates: flash controller firmware, create support archive
o New controller modes (ARCCONF/BIOS):
RAID: Expose RAW mode (previously, RAID mode)
RAID: Hide RAW mode
o Bugfixes
