6.5.0 vs 6.6.0 on Pro6
I am about to venture into the relm of OS6 on my Pro6 and I am curious if I should start with 6.5.0 (which from everything I have been reading is very stable) vs trying to run 6.6.0. I see that s...

Anyway the Plex problems are with the RN2XX ARM build, I believe, not the x86 one.

Plex will certainly be fixed, so if you are not in a rush to implement it, I'd start with 6.6.0
You may not have much choice anyway, since the most of the r4tor6 bins on the downlload site are links to the latest (no matter what release is appended to their name).

Thanks,
Sounds like going to 6.6.0 is the right choice. Will run it for a bit before overwriting the legacy 4.2.28 disks.

Are there any limitations to the 6.6.0 that I should be worrying about. Prior use has been purely as a file server, just now starting to use the box for other applications.

Successfully updated a Pro6 to 6.6.0
A single 3tb seagate drive is installed
Fans are quiet and stable so far.
Enabled disk spin down to ensure that is working correctly
CPU is 35C/95F
System is 55C/131F
I did not look before the update, for an idle system is it expected that the system is warmer than the CPU?

Looks like these numbers are correct. Found several other responses that look very similar.
Just making sure nothing is reversed or not monitoring correctly.
Running the "quiet" mode and cpu fan is running 1506rpm and the system fan is running 1171rpm
