I was a beta tester of the Ultra 6. So I would know that it's always come with a dual-core CPU.
The Ultra 6 came with 4.2.12 firmware originally so it'll work fine with 4k sector disks from the factory. As for 3TB disks you'll need to update to 4.2.16 or later (preferably before adding them).
The Ultra 6 Plus (RNDP600U-200 is much faster than the Ultra 6 (RNDU6000) and the Pro 6 (RNDP6000-200 aka RNDP6000v2) is much faster again. The Ultra 6/Ultra 6 Plus lack business features and have a 3 year warranty.
The Pro 6 has business features and a 5 year warranty.
Depending on the prices available you may wish to get a Ultra 6 Plus or Pro 6 rather than a Ultra 6.
