The developers forum is for people to discuss coding SlimServer

The beta forum is for people who use the nightly and other pre-

That's what I thought - but is there not a huge overlap between the two

Surely most people will end up reading/subscribed to both, not one or

Hi,
Hard drives are indeed very cheap at the moment but you need something
to put them in and that something also needs to connect to your

Not as much when I use a patch cable, but lots of problems with
