Demo of OS6
Hi Jabba, Is there a demo or user guide for OS 6. I am looking at buying a 516 but am nervous as there is little info (other than a few you tube videos) on what features are built into the new OS....

Thanks for the guide, it was extremely useful.
Just a few final questions :)
1) Can the RAM in the 516 be upgraded, and if so what is the maximum?
2) What is the operating noise of the 516
3) On the hardware compatibility list the drives for the 516 are a fraction of the drives for the Pro 6. Is this because the Pro 6 drives have not been tested yet? In the last 6 months I replaced all drives with Western Digital WD RED WD20EFR ones. I noticed on the comparability list that these drives have been replaced by WD RE4-GP WD2002FYPS which are twice the price. Does that mean that I have to junk the new drives. and re-purchase WD RE4-GP WD2002FYPS ones?
@Jabba - please could you clarify on the compatibility list which drives on the Pro 6 have failed testing for the 516, which are currently undergoing testing, and which drives you are planning to test in the future. My guess is this information will help a lot of people/businesses looking to purchase or upgrade.
