You need to issue "sh ver" to see what OS version is installed.

Are you asking if you have take the image file asa822-k8.bin and load it onto ASA5520 and ASA5505?

Yes you can.

Only the ASA5580s take a special code.

Yes that is correct.

ASA code: http://tools.cisco.com/squish/10C815

To see which version will be appropriate to your environment depends on what features you are looking for.

You need to read the release notes here and decide:
