Just to clarify, all these versions are just firmware updates, no hardware changes ?
yep

yep

After HW04 on Revision A, all the hardware is the same.  I believe that pre HW04 is different, as the 32gb cards won't work in them - even with the latest FW.

Who what what ? When buying the RNS510, how do I check its not HW04 ?

It will say at the side of the part number on the sticker,  the sticker if not scratched off is on the top of the unit.

You can get a B or a C version - without any problems.  If you get an A version, you want one thats either HW04 or above.
As morty said above - the only thing that tells you the HW version is the sticker on the top of the unit.  I would email the seller and ask if you're buying from eBay if you happen to stumble across an A unit.
Mine is an A HW04 and is fine - and I think the majority of A's on the go are at least HW04 though.
