Dell RAID Storport Driver version is out of date 5.2.3790.4173

On a Dell server running Microsoft Windows Server  2003 and Dell RAID with the latest Dell updates you may see a warning about: “Driver version is out of date.”

Firmware Version 5B2D
Driver Version 6.46.2.32
Storport Driver Version 5.2.3790.4021

Minimum Required Storport Driver Version 5.2.3790.4173

This warning is dues to the Microsoft StorPort driver not the Dell driver. If you search for the latest Microsoft StorPort driver you are likely to find the version 5.2.3790.4021. Finding a version 5.2.3790.4173 or newer is far more difficult. There are a couple different hot fixes available with newer versions of the StorePort.sys driver

This is the latest version I could find: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943545/en-us I hope this saves someone time! Make sure you select the correct platform. The KB page will only show the download for the platform it thinks best matches the machine you are on! Show all for additional downloads.
