Just to Confirm - Ultegra 12-30 Cassette Upgrade Question

Came across this thread through a Google search. Very informative. My current setup is an older Ultegra 6600 Group with short cage rear derailleur, Shimano 50-34 chain set and 12-27 cassette. I bought it new and have upgraded as parts have worn. About ready to replace cassette and chain due to wear and would like to go with the new 12-30 cassette. So the question, all things equal, by upgrading to the RD 6700 SS rear derailleur, the 12-30 cassette will work fine without any real world issues or do I need to look into a MTB read derailleur?

Thanks in advance!
