If you feel lucky and want to update the ME firmware on your own account, you can try this:

Well I'm not to concerned about updating ME, if there even is an update. I do have whatever version they included in bios version 9.09 which was the last time ASRock included an ME update with the bios update for my board.

I honestly don't know enough about ME to determine if i should worry about it. Should I?

I don't think you need to worry, maybe you're not on the absolute latest one, but I'm pretty sure it will be 16.1.3x.xxxx

You can download a checking tool to see your actual version from Intel at:
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19392/intel-converged-security-and-management-engine-version-detection-tool-intel-csmevdt.html

When not confident it's best to stay by what asrock offers, they will probably know what they are doing.

I viewed mine straight from the bios. My bios version is 16.1.30.2264. That is an acceptable way of checking correct? And I know there is a bios version and a version that's installed in your Windows OS. Not sure if the two should match.

Yes that is a valid way of checking the firmware version too. MEI drivers for windows have different version numbers, so no they don't have to be the same. You can view your your MEI driver version in windows device manager/system devices/Intel(R) Management Engine Interface #1/properties/driver. (by the way, it shows your firmware version too in the firmware tab)

As I said before, i don't think you need to worry about them unless you are dead set on running the latest one. If an update is ever really needed, or a vulnerability is found, I'm sure it will be updated.

MEI features: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000008927/software/chipset-software.html).
