Will the B550-XE bios 3405 work on the B550-E?

It's my understanding that the boards are the same except the XE comes bundled with the Hyper M.2 card.  They share many of the same bios updates but not the latest for the LOGOFAIL exploit.  Please let me know.

Begining to wonder if ASUS MB's  are more susceptible to logofail than other manufacturers.  How long for an answer is too long?

Hello, @HateWaiting 

Please be aware that BIOS versions vary depending on the model, so please avoid mistakenly updating BIOS versions intended for different models.
Furthermore, in order to confirm your model and specifications, I have PM you.
Kindly provide the serial number via PM, as it contains personal information and is not suitable for public disclosure in comments.

Thank you.

Answered and waiting on reply.

What appears to be progress.  I have received this message from Jiaszzz_ROG Customer Service Agent.

Hello, @HateWaiting 

Thank you for sharing the SN.
After confirmation from the relevant department, for the ROG STRIX B550-E GAMING, we have released a Beta BIOS to address the LogoFail vulnerability.
Please proceed to the link below for further downloading and installation:

**Regarding BIOS updates, failing to update the BIOS version corresponding to your specific model may pose risks such as unsuccessful updates or post-update abnormalities.
Furthermore, updating the BIOS carries the risk of boot failure. Please ensure to back up your data before proceeding with the update.

Thank you.

Unfortunately I'm leery of downloading a bios from anywhere other than the main ASUS support page.  I appreciate your work Jiaszzz_ROG but the world we live in has made me cautious.  Anyone else feel the same way or am I ignorant?
