They have fragmented it in the typical IBM non-intuitive way. The Support Downloads is playing magic roundabout. So you have to go to the client requirement pages. The client requirements/search page has separated the platforms by age and their is no hyperlinks to the downloads. So you have to go to the Self Help -> downloads page. Again, the downloads/search page has been separated out, but you get server stuff as well. You have to filter it. Hands up who thing IBM should be nominated for one of the bad navigation web awards. Actually we should insist they should get it considering the scale of this problem. (e.g. try find matching firmware/BIOS/driver for a FASTt HBA adapter, not challenging enough...match it with a supported SDD/RDAC) Actually, this seems to reflect how it works when you deal with IBM via their public call centre.
