Also note that a lot of NASs use more energy than a much more flexible (and powerful) small server. There are lots of great, very inexpensive options with mini-itx boxes and systems based on Intel's Atom CPU. For example, I used to run SC on a LinkStation NAS that consumed 14w when running. I've replaced it with an Atom-based MSI box that uses 23w when running, but actually draws less power overall because it supports suspend-to-RAM and wake-on-LAN, which drops the draw to 3w. And it's much faster with scanning and web ui, supports MusicIP, etc etc.
