No. There is a knowledge base article on that here: http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/29876
If you can afford new disks, then NAS->NAS backup jobs are a good way to migrate data. Then you could try a factory reset on the V2, and see if its stability improves. If it does, you can use it as a backup for the OS6 NAS.
