Hi seanmcd72,
Welcome to the Community!
You can go with a OS6 4-bay NAS models, which is the RN424 (https://www.netgear.com/business/products/storage/readynas/RN424.aspx#tab-techspecs) or RN524X (https://www.netgear.com/business/products/storage/readynas/RN524X.aspx#tab-techspecs).
You can check this link on how you can access the data from the volume on your legacy ReadyNAS using the new OS 6 chassis and offload it. Once data is offloaded, you need to reset the NAS to factory default so the disks will be reformatted and load the OS6 firmware.

Would the RND4000-200NAS work??
No. It would need to be an ultra, a pro, or an OS-6 x86 NAS (RN300 series or better).

Is hooking the 4 disks to a Linux machine worth trying?
An x86 linux system can access the disks. The procedure for mounting the C volume is outlined here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/Reading-NAS-disk-when-NAS-has-failed/m-p/962814#M89651
