+1 having firmwares in DSU older than the ones on the support site or, even
worst, on a new shipped machine (so, without control on what has been
already updated) is really dangerous. In case of the drives, PSUs and
network cards this may be catastrophic and can brick such devices has Hans
pointed out.

It's not a problem of testing IMHO, it's just a faulty design of the way
how Dell distributes updates. A fixed release date for all the distribution
methods (DSU, website, deployment on sold machines) would be much better.

Cheers,
Daniele
