It should normally overwrite the old version, unless it was a manual install
and you copied the .plugin file yourself in your home library folder.
To be perfectly you safe, you can manually remove the plugin from your MIDI
Drivers (only the Casio one!) before installing the new driver. You cannot harm
your system by having two versions of the driver installed at two different
places, but the old one might be chosen before the new one by the system
(depending on where they are installed), and therefore your keyboard won't
work.

I see thanks. I did use the installer so it should be fine. The keyboard is
working well.

Where do I find the MIDI drivers?

Removing old drivers would have had to be done before you used the newest
installer. You no longer have to worry about it, unless you want to remove the
current driver manually. If you always used the installer, there won't be extra
copies of it on your system. In fact, since your keyboard works well, your
installation is correct and doesn't require any more work.
For your information, the driver is normally installed at "/Library/Audio/MIDI
Drivers". You can look into it to see which drivers are currently installed on
your system. For instance, on mine, I have a Yamaha driver along with my Casio
driver. However, the system also looks for MIDI drivers in
"/Users/<username>/Library/Audio/MIDI Drivers". This is useful if you're
testing (or developing) your own driver, and don't want to affect the other
users on your machine. It also doesn't require administrator privileges, so you
can just copy your new driver without entering your password.

Thanks for your detailed answer; I just see CasioUSBMIDIDriver.plugin there so
we are golden.
Thanks.
