Default RE: 4.8 or 6.0 volts?

I've been using 6V NiMH with 2.4GHz receiver and Digital servos for about a year. This setup has worked perfectly for me, however recently I've read some info about 6V being too much for the servos. Is there anything to worry about here? I notice that some Futaba servos do specify 4.6V only and Futaba seems to recommend NiCad over NiMH. I've been wondering if I should switch to NiCads and 4.6V Does anyone have some solid technical information on this subject?
