Speed has never been an issue. Besides streaming my music from LMS, I also stream it using Fubar from that computer to a small system in that office. No buffering no dropouts. Likewise no issues streaming music via LMS either WiFi or Ethernet either. Don't see why speed would be an issue.
On the other hand the HDD is a NAS drive in a fan-cooled enclosure rather than being inside the computer's case. We all make tradeoffs.
Yes, Will my question was answered, first by BH, I've ordered another RPI and will make an RPI NAS this weekend just for kicks. Cut-Throat also answered my question and I'm waiting to see if I can find a Synology NAS on sale. I already bought an HGST NAS drive to put in it.
The rest of the thread got hijacked several times but it was entertaining.
Thanks for asking :-)
