That version is before what is currently freenas. You want nas4free, there was a name change back then. The current freenas started with 8.X but that is not what you are running. Go check the nas4free forums.

From Wikipedia here see the history part of the article:
The original FreeNAS project derives from m0n0wall.[11]

The FreeNAS 0.7 branch was end-of-life'd in late 2011 after the FreeNAS name was legally acquired by iXsystems, Inc. Starting with version 8.x, new iXsystems developers rewrote FreeNAS and legacy FreeNAS 0.7 was no longer available for download.

The legacy FreeNAS 0.7 code was unable to be developed any longer under the same name, and a name change was necessary. The founder of FreeNAS (Olivier Cochard-Labbé) donated the original FreeNAS source code to the NAS4Free project. With the support of the former developers, namely Daisuke Aoyama and Michael Zoon, it carries on the original FreeNAS code base. FreeNAS 8.x.y and up is a software fork of the original FreeNAS with a new rewritten code-base, continuing the old branded name.[2] In 2018, the project applied for the XigmaNAS trademark in order to protect the brand[12] prior to the release of v11.2.

The "FreeNAS" name was bought by iX Systems. FreeNAS was re-written from the ground up to make version 8.0. Version 7 code was split off to make NAS4Free, which is now known as XigmaNAS.

OP, you have your answer. If you want to try out modern FreeNAS, feel free to open a new thread about it.

If you want an ISO for 7.x or if you want the continuation of that codebase, you'll need to to lookup XigmaNAS.
