Yes, I have been thinking about the Pro, but it has quite a hefty price tag!

Looking at the competition makes me think that Netgear maybe should have considered a 5 bay RAID 6 device as the logical upgrade from the NV+ (i.e. they ought to have brought out something to compete with the Qnap 509). I don't intend migrating from my ReadyNAS's, but the 509's price makes it difficult to ignore as an alternative strategy.
