It depends on the age of the motherboard, the BIOS version etc. Some very older motherboard revs don't support as wide a range of CPUs. Replacing the CPU does void the 5-year limited hardware warranty so if you really want to replace the CPU you may wish to wait till that runs out in about three months before doing that.
The Pro 6 is essentially quite similar to the Pro Business Edition, but depending on when your unit was manufactured it may have a new motherboard.
If you download the logs, what is the date in bios_ver.log?
The Plex Media Server add-on for instance can be used to transcode video.
