Is that like the Dell, where it "inventories the system", then *tells* you if it's for this hardware, and that it's newer (or not) than what's there?
It is does do an inventory to determine what is install and what needs updating then it will update all the firmware for the MB, cards, drives, etc. If I recall correctly you can run it in full automatic mode or do selective updates.
