RE: Update, using the Raspberry Pi 3 as a NAS (pic)

Posted by jaydacus on December 25, 2016 at 08:20:37:

Just get this and Volumio. No need for a screen assuming you have a device that can access your local network and has a web browser. I don't know maybe a phone or tablet. You can stream your music from anywhere on your network using Volumio. Tried Rune, PiCore Player, and Moode but I kept coming back to Volumio for one simple reason. Best sound quality.

There are a dozens or other DACs to try such as Durio, JustBoom, Iquadio, etc.

I also have a ChromeBox, but I installed the latest UEFI bios and Windows 8.1. Tried Gallium OS, Kodi, other distros of "ChromeBox friendly" Linux. Once I installed 8g more memory and Windows 8.1 it ran like a "normal" computer and made me realize that all of those other Chromebox OS choices were pointless.
