little question about extra workload
I ordered a Netgear ReadyNAS Ultra 2, with 2x 500gb hdd's in it.
Now my question is, i know its possible to hook an external hdd to the NAS what i want is hook a 2x 500gb external harddisk onto the NAS server.
What i just wondered is if the nas server would feel any extra pressure from this, maybe heavier workload or index files? if yes, would this affect the streaming of 1080p files to my popcornhour a110?
this is the external harddisk, fitting it with 2x 500gb sata hdd's -> http://shop.generalgroup.nl/behuizingen-extern-usb/23603-Sharkoon-2Bay-RAID-Box-4044951011346.html

- I wouldn't expect much extra workload required, the ultra2 should have more than sufficient peformance for streaming to your pch
