I just installed a used Applied Engineering Vulcan in my gs.
It is the 40 meg version.  I'd like to be sure I have the lasest 
software and firmware.
On the interface card, I have the following:
U13 EPROM copyright 1989 Rev VUL1.4GS40
U16 HDC1A.N
U1  HDC3B.N
U2  HDC2A-N
I also have two disks (5.25 and 3.50) both are Version 1.4.2.
The control panel says Vulcan 1.2.
I have both the Vulcan User's Manual v1.21 and
Vulcan User's Manual v1.21 Addendum v1.0.
Do I have the "latest and greatest"?
If NOT what is the latest and greatest?
Is it worth the trouble to "upgrade"?
Why would I want to upgrade this setup.
I am ONLY considering upgrading the firm/software (NOT NEW HARDWARE).
If needed, how can I get the upgrade.
I'd like to hear from others who have the same drive.
I'd hope they would share their experiences with me.
Thanks.
