    Good rule of thumb with firmwares in general is not to update unless the newer firmware addresses an issue you have with the current one.

    If its not broken, don't fix it.

    Also it would be wise to do a complete backup of all files to another drive I you do.

    Just to plug Macrium Reflect as a great freeware App for doing an image if its your system drive.
