I've read a number of things about the need to upgrade my DAC960 card to 
2.73 and my question is, how do I go about doing this?  The firmware
upgrade file that I found was an .EXE file, so I'm assuming that this is
a DOS/Windows executable.  Does this mean that I need to mount the DAC960
in a x86 box to perform the upgrade?  Any help would be greatly 
appreciated as I recently came into 3 DEC Alpha 2100 boxes, each with a
nice RAID array and an accompanying DAC960 card.
