Thanks for this instructions and all the information included. Just upgraded my ReadyNAS Ultra 6 from 4.2.x straight to OS6.4.1 without any issues whatsoever. Previously I just did upgrade the memory from 1GB to 4GB in case there is more demand from OS6.
Overall I was amazed how quick this move to OS6 was acomplished: In less than 20 min I was able to configure and restore data using the OS6 Backup feature. The improvements and additional features that come with OS6 are just great. Now waiting for the volume to complete resyncing in the background, which is estimated with 24h (6x 3TB WD Red Disks). But the great thing is that I'm aready able to use the NAS for data restore, app install, media streaming, TimeMachine backups, configure accounts, all without restart... love it!
