PBG-- Thanks for your reply. I can't believe people are still replying to my original posting. It was over a year ago, but that's great. It created a LOT of exchange with many different opinions. I looked up the NetGear ReadyNas Pro and the cheapest I could find was around $2,500 and that was only for 3Tb. Did you really pay that much, or am I looking at the wrong product? I'm all for investing in good quality sound, but I was hoping for a lower-cost solution. -- Omeriah ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Omeriah's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10330 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43198
