What is the firmware level needed for an SL 500 to run LTO 5 drives?

We have access to one with CDS1375_v2.0c level but If I remember right that was up to LTO 3 (???)

 
While i am on the topic can someone confirm is this like the L series libraries where the # of slots is based on the hardware, and not license based? IE if I add a drive expansion I automatically get another 90 slots, and I do not have to put in a license key?

from what I heard the SL8500 takes the license approach.
