So it's not the exact same version, and also it's not the same sizes of HDD. Can you confirm me that i can switch my 12TB of HDD to the ReadyNas Ultra PLUS that is currently configured for 8TB ?
Yes you can migrate between those two models. Try to ensure the firmware version on the unit you are migrating to is at least as recent as the one on the unit that won't boot. Ultra/Ultra Plus/Pro are all x86 ReadyNAS. Same platform.

I'm not sure which firmware i was using... I think i upgraded to latest but i'm not 100% sure... Is there a way i can tell ?
Not if the unit won't boot. Just try to make sure you're running at least as new firmware as what was on the dead unit. Since it's a fairly new unit and you were using 3TB disks I presume you probably were running 4.2.19.
