Experience with OS 6 on Legacy....
Does anyone have any thoughts, tips, caveats to running OS6 on legacy hardware? I see lots of complaints, problems, etc. I'd like to hear from anyone that's got it running and using it on a day ...

Hello,
New here, if I have a ReadyNAS Pro 6 RNDP6000-200, which OS6 file should I use, since it will not show up on my support page? Which other NAS should we look at to download the OS6 file?
Thanks,
David

See e.g. the third post in this thread: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/OS6-now-works-on-x86-Legacy-WARNING-NO-NTGR-SUPPORT/td-p/897021
You need a special image to do the upgrade and don't forget to backup your data first.
After upgrading to OS6 subsequent firmware updates are done using the ordinary OS6 x86_64 image file which is used for the 300 series and up in desktop models.
