Downloaded the updated via Software Update. Updater application was installed in "Utilities'. Upon launching the application, a window showed with a progression bar, and a warning in red letters "Don't shut down the computer while update is running, it could result in a non-operative device" These are not the exact words, but that's the spirit. I believe that a ReadMe file might have been included with the archive, warning the user to have the laptop duly connected to a power source (the laptop's battery, an UPS, or something). The updater completed its job within 20 seconds, or so, with a "stop" of 10 seconds at 60% completion. At the end, it indicated that the device firmware had been updated, and that the computer should be restarted. Clicked the OK button, open applications started to quit, at the end there was a warning: "No updatable deviice was found". Clicked the OK button, the restart process completed. Booting completed too. I tried again Software Update, which found no software update required. I still have to test the SuperDrive itself. Sorry for the long story.

I've applied this update. Looked like everything was installed correctly. Progress Bar, Don't shut down-Warning, Optimizing System at the end, Restart, everything OK. "Fine" I thought, but: now my superdrive is not working anymore at all. It is completely dead! Though "about this mac" says it's still there (MATSHITADVD-R UJ-857D) it is completely silent and will not accept any CDs or DVDs or such...
Has anyone heard about this problem? Is it a common bug? Or do I have to "send in" my MB. Appreciate any hint...
