A NAS is fine if you have a collection of your own to rip to it. I have an inexpensive Synology NAS with a single 4TB disk in it. It works beautifully and sends its data directly to an SOtM digital bridge. The sound is great. I access it from an office computer to rip and manipulate files and it is accessed by my sound system in another part of the house. My routine is to subscribe to a service like Amazon or Qobuz for a month at a time for some new musical ideas, and listen to my own collection for months in between.
Which NAS should I choose?
Hi guys,
It's just sorta a general wondering, so recently I've been thinking about purchasing a NAS for audio storage and stuff, I used to just simply store music with USB, but I read some articles about NAS, it seems to me that most audiophiles possess one to cooperate with their Hi-Fi gear at home, so maybe it does help further improve the sound quality(?
As you all may know, there are several brands of NAS out there, which one is the best fit for me as a NAS newbie haha? Synology and QNAP are quite popular I suppose, but what about others, what's the difference?
If you can also kindly share what's your system(like what device you use to connect to NAS) with me, that'd certainly be a great reference to me then.
Best,
