To use the Touch's built-in server (TinySBS) you would need to have the
music files on a USB drive instead of the NAS. Then plug the USB drive
into the Touch, activate TinySBS (via Settings > Advanced > Squeezebox
Server > Start Squeezebox Server). Then it will take a while to scan
the USB drive and built the database of metadata.

The main difference with 7.6 is that it uses SQLite for the database
instead of MySQL. TinySBS already uses SQLite. SQLite has a lighter
footprint than MySQL, and tends to run better than MySQL on
underpowered servers such as yours. 

7.6 is still beta, gets updated nightly, and has a distinct possibility
of breaking from time to time. Last I heard they were expecting it to be
released around June this year, but there are absolutely no promises in
that regard. If there is a build for the ReadyNAS you can download it
from http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly . You can install it on
the NAS the same way you did 7.5.x, and yes, it will have to rescan
your library. For purposes of testing you could try pointing it a small
subset of your library, so that it finishes the scan more quickly. Pick
a subset containing albums that have exhibited the problem already with
7.5.x.
