Some users here in the Community were able to convert their 4.2.x NAS to OS6. This can also work for you, although this is not supported by NETGEAR. You may check this thread for the steps.
The files you need to convert your Pro 2 to OS6 can be found here.

That is JohnCM_S' main recommendation, the conversion was an alternative.
If you do get a new main NAS (perhaps in the RN420 series), then I recommend repurposing the Pro-2 as a local backup (in addition to the Egynte cloud backup).
