Can you do what? The solution I pointed to for the fan and CPU temperature issue is done via SSH after the unit is updated.
The updates have been coming so fast and furious that I've been hesitant to update to 6.7.4 on legacy equipment (which is all but one of my NASes). I'm sure Netgear has not had time or resources to fully test each one on every legacy platform and there has been no beta testing. I've only updated my Pro2 "sandbox" system. I've seen no issues there, but there's a big difference between a 2-bay and 12-bay system.
So if that's the case remove the legacy hardware from the update list because all it's doing is breaking perfectly good work hardware which leaves a bad taste for the NETGEAR product.
You only got 6.x on a 4200v1 by yourself or a prior owner installing an unsupported hack/modification from this forum...it's not supported by Netgear. They are still releasing 4.2 maintenance updates and just released one yesterday, actually. If you are using the 4200 in an environment where reliability and availability are important to business or other purposes, you shouldn't be running unsupported software.
You could possibly try downgrading to 6.7.2 but don't downgrade to 6.7.3
If you like you could send in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig).
