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.
I know running OS 6 on legacy devices is not supported. Frankly, I couldn't care less about Netgear support at this point - after having dealt with them for a year just to find out how sorry this company is. I've never bought anything from Netgear for that very reason. I became a fan of ReadyNAS when it was made by Infrant.
By the way, the built quality of the ReadyNAS Pro is still superior to QNAP built quality. And when trying to choose between QNAP and Synology, I've read numerous reports of how QNAP built quality is much superior to that of Synology. So, ReadyNAS Pro is a superior built device with absolutely dismal software developers behind it at this point. After the Jedi left, software development and support is just a disaster.
What I'm trying to find out is if OS 6.08 finally has fan control working on legacy devices. I may keep my ReadyNAS Pro if I can throw OS 6 on and deem it reliable after some testing.
