Is there a way to check the firmware revison of ide cdroms?

On scsi emulated ones, cdrecord --checkdrive dev=0,0,0 tells all.

Is there a way to do this for ide drives?  I have a utility in
windows that does it, but it's not as complete, and i'd rather be
able to do it in linux.

Is there any harm in setting the ide cdrom to scsi emulation?  (i
can't see why their would be).

thanks,
eric
