ReadyNAS RN10200 Sufficient ?
I have a ReadyNAS Duo v1 which I am looking to replace. I have only ever used this at its most basic, storing all my data under a single file share giving me plenty of space and some redundancy. W...
Thank you both.
I found specs for my existing unit and looks like power consumption is similar. There is nothing in the specs on db so for the difference in noise level, if any, I was hoping on real experiences. My wife complains about the constant noise of the current one. I also found in the specs the media ReadyDLNA supports in the new units but not the old one, so don't know what's changed on that front. The list of supported media that can be streamed is the same for the 10200 and the 31200. Not sure how this is relevant as I thought the support needs to be in the player, the home theatre that's doing the work.
At first I was just looking at playing the files remotely but the transcoding looks like it would be of great value as I get into this new avenue. I am guessing that if I wish to transcode it would be through an app installed on the NAS as the NAS out of the box doesn't support this ? Was just looking around at different NAS's and the Synology DS214PLAY sounds ok too. Bit more expensive though.
As you can probably tell I am a bit unsure of what to get. I'm concerned I'll purchase something and then once familiar with it end up saying I wish I could do this or that.
