Default Ultra 2 PROM rev & DVD drive questions

Hi

I'm moving my home mail/file/web serving to Solaris 10 on an Ultra 2.
What is the latest PROM rev for the Ultra 2? I am digging about on
Sun's site but they sure bury it deep if it's there!.

Also, what's a decent, known-to-work, model of scsi DVD drive I can
put in?

Thank you
Cheers, Liam

Not sure what the rev is off the top of my head, but the Sun HW handbook
might shed some light. The patch you're after is 104169-xx; the version
I have here is -08.
