Looks like the file doesn't exist there anymore. You can get the
firmware from ibm support web page for your model as well. For ex: for
mine - I get:
http://www-306.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/product.do?doctypeind=9&doccategoryind=154000&operatingsystemind=49979&template=%2Fproductpage%2Flandingpages%2FproductPageLandingPage.vm&brandind=10&familyind=117057&machineind=140290&modelind=140298&partnumberind=0&subcategoryind=0&validate=true
Which lists the cd-rw/dvd firmware update as:
http://www-306.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-41020
fwdr1604.exe is the one to download for UJDA745 - as per fwdr16en.txt
