Why upgrade to OS6?
Sorry if this is a silly question but there are so many threads to read and I haven't come across a simple summarisation regards the benefits of upgrading to OS6. I have an ultra 4 plus that I use ...

My Ultra 4 Plus on OS6 has been fully restored and been running for almost a full week now.
Everything has been running smoothly, fan speed very regular at around 1770rpm, and not one hiccup.
So very happy and well worth doing.
My views on OS6
Very fast to navigate compared to OS4.
Love the ability to manipulate everything in the browser. i.e create files/ rename/ cut and paste/ browse etc.
Can do lots on my iPad rather than switching on a windows laptop. Useful for KODI database management
The ability to monitor the performance is also a nice interesting option.
There is just so much more compared to OS4
And it looks easy on the eye too.
Can someone clarify this for me
Can I add any size HDD now without factory reset?
Is the antivirus worth keep on? How does it work? Does it have any impact on transfer speeds?
How to update future firmware? Does it update as per any other supported OS6 device or do I manually update each time?
Thanks
Hi!
Just curious, what do you mean with Kodi management?
I've been thinking about configuring Mysql since I use Kodi on three different devices currently.
Thanks!
Sorry to confuse. Nothing complicated for me. I just use the NAS as an smb share with all the movies on it for the streamer.
I meant for adding from transmission, renaming to for the scraper, deleting watched movies etc..
