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've got two Pro 6's and one Ultra 4, all running OS6.
Pro 6 #1 averages roughly 50GB's per day (Role - Windows Server Backups)
Pro 6 #2 averages roughly 10GB's per day (Role - User Shares and Long term Data Archival)
Ultra 4 (Role - Video Surveillance NVR - daily throughput unknown) Receives six H.264 720p Video Streams 24/7/365 at 15 frames per second
I ran into some minor BTRFS issues on the Ultra 4 when it was running a very early OS6 build, but being the ReadyNAS Genius that he is, mdgm helped me overcome them with a few short scripts at the command line. These minor BTRFS issues could have likely been avoided had I disabled Snapshotting from day one. . .
