Is 6.10.10 the end of the line?

Wondering if 6.10.10 is the final or will there me more releases in the future? 

I'd be surprised if we see another release.  I don't think they have anyone left who can do one.

 

All the platforms are in the "end-of-life" list.  Netgear claims they send out End of Service alerts to registered owners when their products become EOL.   But I never received such a notice for my various OS-6 ReadyNAS.   Instead Netgear just silently exited the business.

 

Netgear also says that they will no longer provide updates for EOL products - though they did actually provide one last security update for previous generation ReadyNAS (4.1.16, 4.2.31, and 5.3.13) well after those products were EOL.  But I doubt they will do that for OS-6 NAS.

I only use it as local storage so 6.10.10 works fine for me.

Me too.  I run applications (Plex, etc) on a PC that has the NAS volume mounted as a drive letter.  I plan to continue using my setup as long as it continues to work reliably.
