yup, but shrunk down to ss20 size and fits the aurora chassis, and
with socketed cpu [and other things] as mike said.  has an internal
narrow scsi socket just like ss5/ss20; also internal audio like ss5
but doesn't seem to work - under 64b s8 anyway.

afaik they were eol in '02.

yep.  self-ids as 'ultra 2' for os installation, but that's a stretch
from the hardware level, so flashing the obp with an ultra-2 image is
'contraindicated'...
