Yep. It's in dmesg.boot:

twa0: INFO: (0x15: 0x1300): Controller details:: Model 9550SX-8LP, 8 
ports, Firmware FE9X 3.04.01.011, BIOS BE9X 3.04.00.002

That's the latest one released as 9.3.0.7 on the 3ware website. 
Yesterday flashed and rebooted them all, and this morning I got the next 
crash.

Regards,
Atanas
