i.e. Rebuild of RAID, addition / swapping / replacement of drives, new drive compatibility, remote administration, etc...

Running into problems fixed by later versions isn't going to get much sympathy/support from QNAP

Since the QNAP updates include the kernel, installing an antique version of the kernel that does not include drivers to talk to the disk / network / hardware platform, that may not be 'good?'

Any protection in the updates to prevent ending up with a brick, may not help if you've tampered with the update.
