Flashing an optical drive is something I've often done with no ill effects, but only do it if it will offer you some benefits that you need. If the drive works satisfactorily as it is, leave it alone.

if you do decide to flash, be perfectly sure you are using the correct update for your particular drive model and follow the instructions exactly.
