Ready NAS 316 version 6.2.2 to the newest 6.10.9 upgrade
Hey all, is there anything I need to know before trying to upgrade from a very old version on a 316 version 6.2.2 to 6.10.9 ?
It does not say I need to go to any other version before going to 6.10.9 but I wanted to check before trying that. I have been wanting to upgrade for a long time, but did not have the space to backup my NAS to anywhere else before the upgrade so was very hesitant.
Thanks

It should work, though you might consider doing a factory default afterwards, recreating the shares, and restoring from backup. They did make some changes to how the file system was set up some years back now, and I think you'll get a little better performance if you do that.
Do you have any apps installed? If you do, which ones?

Thanks, I will give it a shot. I have no apps installed at all.
