Take a look at the link you gave, CPU Specs of the ReadyNAS. The Pro 6 (RNDP6000-200 aka RNDP6000-V2) has the 2.6Ghz Pentium CPU you need. The Ultra 6 Plus (RNDP600U-200), Pro Pioneer (RNDP600E-100) and the Pro Business Edition (RNDP6000-100) have the slower 1.8Ghz Pentium CPU.
The Pro 6 (released last year) replaced the discontinued Pro Business Edition. NetGear only started using Atom CPUs in some models last year (Atom CPUs are found in Ultra 2/4/6, Ultra 2/4 Plus, Pro 2/4). The Pentium CPUs used in the 6-bay models mentioned above are faster than the Atom CPUs used in some other ReadyNAS (also mentioned above).
Btw, you can look up CPUs on Intel's site e.g. simply doing a google search for E5300 reveals: http://ark.intel.com/products/35300/Intel-Pentium-Processor-E5300-(2M-Cache-2_60-GHz-800-MHz-FSB)
