ReadyNAS Ultra 4 Plus - OS 6.10.1?

Hi All,

 

Short Question:

Is OS 6.10.1 able to run on the Ultra 4 Plus?

 

Context:

I run two ReadyNAS devices - a RN214 and this Ultra 4 Plus (used as a backup). Both run OS 6 and I have updated them both as required when 'Check for Updates' reports newer firmware available. Up to this point, both have received the same Firmware version without any problems.

 

When I was prompted to update my RN214 to 6.10.1, I fired up my Ultra 4 Plus to do the same, but it reports I have the latest firmware available (currently on 6.10.0 Hotfix 2). Have I reached the end of the road for automated firmware updates on this model? Can I still keep both devices in step with manual firmware updates or is 6.10.0 Hotfix 2 the terminal release for my aged Ultra 4 Plus?

 

Grateful for any information/guidance you can provide.

  • Well, OS-6 isn't officially supported on the ultra (as you likely know).

     

    That said, you should be seeing a prompt for 6.10.1.  Is the Ultra update setting set to "stable"?
