The TOS 6 test update package is expected to be released to users who have signed up for Insider Preview Program tomorrow. Please pay attention to your email for further instructions.

So far so good: manually updated to 5.1.95, then to the TOS 6.0.108 preview... simply like a breeze.
To be noted that - before I manually updated - the automatic update of TOS still gave me the 5.1.67 as latest version.

Thank you for your feedback! Remember to clear your web browser cache after the update.

I applied for the program, but I never received version 6. I have a 223 series device. It's a pity. It's not interesting at all. I'm very offended at you, I gave you reviews, made articles, advertised all over the country. I will no longer cooperate with you, look for other bloggers.

F-4-423. The upgrade to TOS6 went without problems, the full cycle took 10 minutes in a configuration of four disks with a total volume of 64 terabytes (almost 70% occupied).

Even surprisingly, Docker started without reconfiguring applications.

Premium from Plex and Emby picked up without problems, Qbittorrent started, continuing to download everything from the stop.

No obvious jambs were found in the "Home Video Server" scenario.

Hardware acceleration works with Plex - converting from 4K HDR to 4 SDR is easy.

A slightly more fashionable interface with a more modern window animation.

The CPU load during the active download / distribution of two dozen torrents is lower than it was on the last TOS-5.1.95.

There is an old error from TOS 5 - the Emby shortcut on the desktop opens via port 8181 instead of 8096.

I've been using iOS 6 for three days now without any problems.

F2-221

• Update from 5.1.31 to 5.1.95 no issues

• Update from 5.1.95 to 6.0.108 no issues

• all the running 3rd party apps start correctly after reboot

• I found the interface animations a bit too slow, maybe an option to disable it or icrease the speed ?

I was able to upgrade to 6.0.108 with no trouble. One thing I did notice is that the NVME is no longer showing as cache. It shows up under Hard drives correctly, but there is no cache volume and all the options are greyed out. Not a show stopper, just wondering is this is a known issue. I have not looked at it much yet, I am hoping to do that in the next couple days.
