Update dimension 4550 BIOS

I am looking to upgrade the hard drive on my D4550 to a 160GB Western Digital drive. I've read in the Hard Drive forum that you need to have BIOS version A5 to accomodate a drive of that size. Looking at the Belarc advisor system configuration page, I've got version A01. I went to the Dell drivers upgrade page and saw there was an upgrade for the BIOS from 10/7/03 but it didn't list what version.
I am very cautious when it comes to upgrading these kinds of things and before downloading, want to be sure that I'm doing the right thing and won't mess up anything.
Any suggestions?

Hi Elsbeth, I downloaded and installed A08 this morning.
 
Thanks, John

John Holscher,


The BIOS version on the website is A08, you should be fine updating to that version.
