OS6 now works on x86 Legacy WARNING: NO NTGR SUPPORT!
Update: It is now unofficially possible using NTGR images to update legacy hardware to os6.X See Post #3, for directions to install 6.2.1 on x86 Ultra and Pro Models. (ARM NOT SUPPORTED by this OS) ...
mdgm and I have decided that its time to lock this thread. So please do post any new OS6 on Legacy issues on their own threads.
For whom was wondering if OS6 can replace all features/functionality they were using on readynas x86 on 4.2.x ; have a look on the review of readyNAS 104 by SmallNetBuilder (They will review the OS6 in more details soon) :

I am definitively waiting for their review as the official Netgear communication is too simple or too marketing for my taste.
PS: sorry glem, when WD to release new Red 4TB, i'll be able to post /etc/fancontrol of my Ultra2. What I can say now is that the fans (in 4.2.x) were most often around 800 rpm for ambiant temperature from 5°C to 25°C (yes 05°C nearly a fridge temp during winter). When temp rised to 38°C the fans went up to 1200rpm range. I am not actively watching at fan speed on the GUI, but sometimes I have seen them too fast considering the temperature (like 1100rpm at 23°C), and a calibration (which wasn't really needed) put the fans back to 800rpm.

NETGEAR asked me to point out that setup isn't the only cloud-enabled feature that OS 6 brings to ReadyNAS. You get portal-based (no fiddling with dynamic DNS or router port forwarding) file access and management, a Dropbox-like service (ReadyDROP), Remote support for Time Machine backups, remote play for media files and other features that will be explored in the OS 6 review to follow.
