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.

In the System -> Volumes area, if you click on your volume, you should find a "Scrub" button. This will not only do what it did on R4 (check for RAID parity mismatches), but also validate the data checksums on all of the files on the volume. So you can find out immediately if there is any silent data corruption going on. You currently can't schedule automated scrubs, but this is something that will come in a future release.

BTRFS should be more resilient than EXT3/4, due to the nature of Copy-on-Write filesystems. It also checksums metadata, and we have it keeping duplicate metadata copies as well.
