If you feel the need to update your bios because of an underperforming pc or if you have to fix a problem, only then you should update your bios, like @rgd1101 said. If this is the case and you have a bios version older than 12/05/2015, you can update it. Go to the link you have posted and...

Do you have trim enabled, is your ssd 4k aligned, have you enabled uefi boot and potential 'fast boot' options form your mobo? Also enabling rapid mode in samsung magician will boost your experience a lot.
