That would be his prerogative. i'm sworn to secrecy, but I'm sure he's done it in the past and will do it if it comes up again.

It sounds like your NAS decided it needed a new configuration file because of the new CPU, and that didn't go well. I'm afraid I don't know where the OS 4.2.x equivalent of /etc/systemd/system.conf is (unless maybe it's the same), but that's what controls the reported monitors in OS6.x and I assume there is one for 4.2.x as well.
I hope you realize that that that processor has a higher TDP than the original and you may end up with cooling problems. Unless you have some extensive parallel processing (like multiple PLEX streams), you likely could do as well with a Core2 Duo E7500.
