At the end of beta, they were simply different models of droids with various options such as more health, more module slots, armor slots & personality chip slots.
If you put crafting station modules in them, they can be portable crafting stations. If you put medical modules in them, they can be portable medical stations. (or both).

I believe that the Astromechs have more slots so that one could be both a crafting station and medical. However I don't believe any Droid Engineers went far enough to test those out, or if they did they were bugged beyond reason. You should take note that Mouse droid has less armor, life, and is not as smart as the Astromechs. This is very important when you are in battle and see yourMouse Droidrunning toward the enemy just to get one shot blasted to death.
Beyond that I think both those droids can perform the same tasks, but the Astromechs should perform them better (IE. Hold more stuff, craft better with, etc.)
Actually MSE-6 droids are meant to have a real desire for life, but don't worry hehe. Basically the more advanced droids offer more inventory space, more module space, and can take advantage of more advanced tinkering and customisation.
Besides.. mouse droid with crafting module.. or artoo with crafting module. Doesn't compare :wookiee: *bleep*
