Firmware update - skipping verions

Hello, recieved the email to update RAIDiator to v 4.1.16.  When I went to do so, I saw I am currently running 4.1.4.  Will the download prompted from the email automatically catch up on missing versions, or do I need to sequentially update (4.1.5, then 4.1.6, then 4.1.7 etc.)?

    4.1.4 is very old (2008 I think).

     

    You don't need to sequentially update, but I strongly recommend backing up your data before you begin.

      You should backup regularly regardless but especially before updating the firmware, even more so when doing a big firmware jump.
