It all depends on the performance on the NAS of course but I've seen many users who have performance problems when they try to run LMS on a NAS. I think it's very unlikely that moving LMS to the NAS is going to speed things up, it's a lot more likely it's going to slow things down considerably. It's better to only use the NAS as file storage and run LMS on a normal computer, that's what I do in my own setup.
As garym mentions, storing the music files on a local drive on the computer might speed things up a lot, because disk access towards a local disc is usually considerably faster than disc access towards a NAS (which is limited by the network bandwidth). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49483 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
