MacBook – How to know what version the Mini DisplayPort port is on the 2010 MacBook Pro

I want to connect 2 monitors to my MacBook Pro (mid-2010). The problem is that I don't if the Mini DisplayPort is version 1.2, which would support daisy chaining. How can I figure out what version firmware my Mini DisplayPort uses and whether or not it would support daisy chaining?

The 2011 MBP (MacBookPro8,1) has thunderbolt, so either your machine is not a 2011, or it has thunderbolt. the 2010 MacBook Pros have MDP that supports audio as well as video (I have a 2009 which only does video).

Keep in mind that MDP and Thunderbolt look identical.
