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 process I will need to do a complete factory restore. Any reasons *not* to upgrade to OS6 at the same time?
God, yes. Don't think of OS6 as an "upgrade"; at the moment it's not better than OS4, just different. And even on supported hardware, OS6 is worse in many ways than OS4 on your hardware.
If your NAS's continued trustworthiness is important to you, stick with OS4.
