Non è distruttiva ma come al solito consigliano di effettuare un backup prima dell'operazione per ogni eventualità.

Tuttavia, indagando, qui scrivono che l'aggiornamento nel caso di questo SSD non è per correggere bug, ma solo prestazionale, almeno per quello che riguarda la versione M310:

Any time we release new SSD firmware, customers typically ask two questions. The first is, should I update my drive? Our standard answer to that is if your system is fast and stable, we suggest that you do not update your drive. There are no stability related fixes or bug fixes in the recent M208/M310 firmware releases so customers that are happy, fast, and stable may not want to apply the updates.
Their second question is usually will this firmware update improve my drive performance. Based on our performance testing results shown here and with our usage in the lab, the answer is yes! There are some performance gains to be had by updating to to the new firmware.

EDIT: L'ultima che dovrebbe essere M311 pare contenga bug fix:

I am working on getting some release notes but it's like pulling teeth due to NDA.
I can say that there are no performance based changes/increases. So far, all I have is "internal bug fixes". If our NDA allows, we will post more specific info. If it does not, that's all we have for now.
So, you can decide for yourself to update or not to update. We have tested it and for us to our thorough criteria, it's stable. But, you may also want to abide by the old maxim; "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".

EDIT2: a proposito, leggendo pare che diversa gente abbia avuto problemi ad aggiornare con il Toolbox 1.2; la più vecchia versione 1.0 invece sembra che funzioni.
