OS6 now works on x86 Legacy WARNING: NO NTGR SUPPORT!
Update: It is now unofficially possible using NTGR images to update legacy hardware to os6.X See Post #3, for directions to install 6.2.1 on x86 Ultra and Pro Models. (ARM NOT SUPPORTED by this OS) ...

mdgm and I have decided that its time to lock this thread. So please do post any new OS6 on Legacy issues on their own threads.

Hello all,
what system would you guys recommend setting up for max reliability and good speed:
It is a ReadyNas ProPioneer x86 system with 6 3TB drives
1) OS6 with btrfs-raid5
2) NAS4free with ZFS
Already read this thread and this one about ZFS and FreeNAS: http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=74678
Is btrfs in OS6 stable enough now for daily use?
Does the automatic file repair described in the arstechnica article here http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/01/bitrot-and-atomic-cows-inside-next-gen-filesystems/2/ work on the Netgear?
Switching to btrfs would lead to a data reset of an existing XRAID2 setup?
Do Add ons like plex media server work on the x86 legacy devices?
Thanks in advance and sorry for the newbie questions.
