OK I run a number of Squeezebox devices in my home and currently have an original Netgear Readynas which has been superb - unbelievably stable and reliable and currently runs 2x 2tb drives in it.
We use the server for photos, films and all sorts of other stuff as well as all my ripped flac music. We're running out of storage on the server and this readynas cannot use drives larger than 2TB apparently. I'm thinking of buying another NAS drive and am tempted to stick with Netgear - maybe a 212 or even 214 to give greater future proofing of capacity - I do some professional photography, models etc and so have a lot of photos to store. I'm also open to changing brand though - perhaps Synology if people think they are significantly better. It seems that running squeezebox server on some of the more recent NAS drives can be problematic with installs and configuration so can anybody recommend which to buy? I guess another option might be to buy a second NAS drive and use the new one for photos and films and keep my existing readynas just for music. If I was able to move all the movies and photos from the old NAS then it's 2x 2TB drives would be more than big enough for all my future FLAC/Squeezebox requirements and as I say it seems to be a robust little unit actually. I'd welcome thoughts from any experts!
