RE: Further thoughts on RPi player

Posted by Cut-Throat on March 10, 2017 at 15:30:42:
Looking forward to your review.... Since you now know that the Rpi is a very simple unit to configure, keep an open mind about a NAS.....
My NAS has made my computer systems much simpler... Far easier than sharing files via Windows...If it was 'More Complex', I wouldn't do it...Period!
.Don't get hung up on the RAID... Yes, I know it is not a substitute for a good Backup Regimen, as I have those also. It is basically an extra 'Free' level of protection and would come in handy in case of a Drive failure (Which by the way is the only reason I have ever had to use my backups. I was also in Information Systems for over 30 years, so I know what I'm talking about.
