I'm currently running:

                         OpenSolaris 2009.06 snv_111b X86
           Copyright 2009 Sun Microsystems, Inc.  All Rights Reserved.
                        Use is subject to license terms.
                              Assembled 07 May 2009

Or uname shows "SunOS fsfs 5.11 snv_111b i86pc i386 i86pc".

I'm totally confused about versions of this thing, by the way, and releases.

This is a home NAS server, running (currently) 4 data disks in two
mirrored pairs in the data pool.  Disks are SATA hot-swap on the on-board
controllers on an Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe motherboard, in case that matters
for what version is suitable.  I'm adding a Supermicro UIO MegaRAID
AOC-USAS-L8i controller, in case THAT matters for what version is
suitable.  I'm using CIFS.  The data pool is currently 800GB, about to
become 1.2TB when I add a third pair of disks.  That's about it.

So, what's the best easy-to-install opensolaris upgrade for me to go to? 
And how could I have figured this out for myself (like a list of what's in
the repository and what it's called maybe)?  And how do I go about
updating to it?  I currently have opensolaris-1 and opensolaris-2 boot
environments on my rpool, which confirms my memory that I've used pkg to
update in the past.  Since the hardware is either already working, or
something widely said to work well in Solaris, I think the primary concern
in picking a version is the state of the ZFS code, hence asking here.

To put it differently:

If I wanted to upgrade to build 124, say, or 130, how would I do that? 
What would I type?

And the other half of the question, what's the best stable built around
this week?
