You should be able to
(a) boot up the Pro-6 and the ultra with a scratch disk (not in the array)
(b) verify that the firmware is correct (and if not install the current firmware)
(c) power down the NAS, insert your existing disks, and then power up.
You might not get all the business features of the pro-6 w/o a factory reset, not sure about that.
The alternative is to follow that procedure with the spare ultra, and do a factory install on the pro-6 (with fresh disks). Then copy the data to the pro-6 over the network, using frontview backup.
Either way, then set up frontview backup to keep the ultra current.
I see no need to buy NAS data recovery software, I don't think it improves your chances of success.
