Has anyone ever heard of or used one of these? Link
I was looking for an external solution that would in essence act as a a server, allowing me to share media (songs, movies, files, etc...) between the two computers in my room. One of the main purposes in me getting it would be to host my song collection, ripped in Apple Lossless. The hard drive on my primary rig is far too small (74GB 10KRPM, build for performance) for media, and the other computer is wired to speakers rather than headphones. My logic was that essentially if I could host the files on this NAC drive, I could play songs/movies from either computer.
My question is, has anyone ever used a Network Attached Storage (NAC) drive? Would I experience a degrading of sound quality, playing it from an external medium such as this?
