I have a legacy ReadyNAS Ultra 6 Plus, which boots up and shows the model as "ReadyNAS Pro." Since its release, I have been using OS 6.6.1 (Plex app only and antivirus off) without any issues. Certain apps and Antivirus on seem to have been a problem for others.
The HCL for legacy products appears to be updated no longer. In addition to what is shown on the dormant HCL, I have successfully used HGST 8TB (HUH728080ALE600) and just started using 10TB (HUH721010ALE600) drives in the Ultra 6 Plus/"Pro."

Choose "Legacy" at bottom of dropdown list, then select device from additional dropdown list.
Thank you for the informationand for the link. I feel fortunate that the old Business Pro (or is it Pro Business?) seems to be working well. It doesn't get much use, but it's nice to know it's there should there be the need.
Thanks again.
Note that users have reported success with some disks not on the compatibility list for the Pro BE especially on OS6. YMMV.
