Intel RES2SV240 Firmware Update / Not always seeing drives?

Does anyone know where I can get the latest firmware for the intel res2sv240 raid expander card? Their website seems to just not have it anymore. (Sidebar: It is obnoxious that vendors take down support info and downloads after a certain point. Why is that even a thing?)

I’m not even really sure what the latest is at this point. Mine currently reports a

Storcli in efi shows:

product revision level = 0d00. ProdId = RES2SV240 VendorSpecific = x36-254.13.0.0

No idea what that stuff means. I just know that sometimes I boot and I can see the drives behind the expander, other times I can’t. In other words I can always see my LSI Megaraid card (LSI MegaRAID SAS 9285CV-8e … on latest firmware), but can’t always see the drives.

It goes LSI Megaraid -> Intel SAS Expander -> Drives.

I’m guessing that the firmware on the expander might have an update to fix the behavior but who knows.

Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks!
