Anyone got 6.2 on their legacy RN yet?
Didn't see any post on this topic, do you install 6.1 from the other thread then just upgrade from frontview?

I hear Synology drop support for old models as well, despite some of them being much more powerful than many supported models and clearly powerful enough to run it.
Not sure how long the competition does bug fix and security updates, but the latest Sparc releases still run on the first ReadyNAS units we shipped. So the upcoming 4.1.14 firmware update (bug fix and security updates) will run on devices from 2004.
The ReadyNAS Pro, the first 4.2.x device released in 2008 will still get the 4.2.27 update etc. 4.2.27 does include an update from samba 3.5.x to 3.6.x
