$200+? A large hard drive alone will cost you $100+. I'm just saying create the rough equivalent of an NAS with the balls to run SlimServer with a large library. I don't really understand the fascination with running SlimServer on an NAS appliance, and a quiet one at that, but there certainly seems to be large calling for such a thing. I'm guessing people either want to place the server in their music listening environment, in which quiet is a must, or else they keep the thing in their home office or bedroom and don't want the noise of a traditional PC. -- JJZolx Jim _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
