By the way, files don't like to cut through 'rocked' chain and are dulled much faster by it than new chain. That's because the face of the cutter is 'work hardened' up closer to as hard as the file. The grinding stones in the cassette have little challenge with this phenomenon.
Oregon's system is a special chain and the cassette combo that work together. Then later you can buy chains and new sharpening stones separately.
