Provided you're certain you have R4.0, then don't worry about the discrepancy in dates. It's likely there was a slight tweak to the launch BIOS (making 12/12 = 1.00) and yours was loaded prior to that (the intended 1.00)

I would say it depends. A BIOS update can always be beneficial due to stability, compatibility, and security improvements it can make.

But to answer your question - do you NEED to update it? No. And I tend to err on the side of don't fix what isn't broken.

If you start encountering problems or need an update for compatibility/security, then potentially consider updating your BIOS.
