New NAS hardware recommendations
Posted: Thu Jan 04, 2018 6:47 pm
I've been using Twonky software and Buffalo Linkstations for 10 years now since they seem to work very well for me.
Since I'm running out of NAS disk space I need to upgrade
I've tried Synology and Buffalo's latest NAS but neither handle my music properly. (Both support departments admit shortcomings**)
I've looked at Western Digital but I think their latest 'My Cloud Home' no longer supports Twonky.
I've also looked at Plex but it doesn't seem to handle large numbers of music files very well.
Can anyone recommend new hardware that will run Twonky (since I know that works).
I need a minimum of 3 - 4 TBytes and don't need raid.
I don't have a big budget (<£200 or <~$250)
thanks
Edward
** Synology & Buffalo short comings are I can't browse music by genre>artist>album>Track. Duh!!
