Has anyone (other than GadgetUK) got SCSI cards to work with TF536 after the RC3 firmware update?

I'm in Australia and never done this before...
Also is there a sticky post for all the latest firmwares of all TF cards ?
I have a TF330 also and I'm not sure what is the latest firmware for it and if I have it...
Thank you.
I found this to be very helpful:

Is this the only way of updating the TF536? I'm baffled by the sheer amount of hardware and effort that's needed to do this. O.o

Baffled why? Thats the cheapest way to do it. You can buy an expensive XIlinx programmer as an alternative.

It's really not that expensive, $30 on ebay.

As a naive and highly inexperienced amiga newbie, I was probably expecting to just do it from one of the internal storage options, but I suppose that's not possible.

That looks like a much easier way, I'll just get one of those. Thank you.

Please be aware that you will most likely need a 32 bit windows to run the Xilinx ISE (14.1) and the programmer drivers. Even if you have an old WinXP machine it will be fine.

There's a workaround to get it to work on 64bit win10, couple of files to replace. Details on here -> https://alchitry.com/pages/installing-ise
