The last bit is very slow, which is why it'd be nice to have a Jungledisk plugin on the NAS so it could run 24/7 without needing the PC on making noise at night.
the ready nas looks like a good bet for me but I need something that can stream to ps3 without any problems.anyone any experience?
ebuyer have still got a similar offer until 3rd April

Grabbed one myself before the 31st December as thats when the free extra HD offer ended.
does the transcoding work though?I'd read that the ReadyNas duo hasn't the beef to deal with it properly
I looked into it and asked about and the general consensus was that it lacked the processing power to do it well enough. I think you need an NV or something of similar power.Try a .flac file as lots of things won't touch those.
I wouldn't run a straight RAID 1 as any problems just get duplicated.
Still, virus etc. is a major concern. I've also got a system image on another HDD but I'm not ridiculously good at keeping it up to date.
