I don't know what to do - NAS/Sream/Transcode
Posted: Tue Nov 23, 2010 9:43 am
Hi
Firstly apologies if I should start to ask the obvious!
I was initially looking to purchase a NAS for file store, multimedia
network stream to multiple devices (iPad etc) around the house and to
use as a "download" box (Usenet).
However due to the hardware constraints I wasn't overly impressed when
reading user feedback especially with downloading on faster Internet
connections such as 50MB and transcoding video for it to be streamed.
I would like a quiet setup, so I was look at a fan-less motherboard
such as the Asus AT5IONT-I are there any other alternatives? I assume
a case intake / extract fan is still advise?
If you could make any recommendations I'd appreciate it, doesn't have
to be fan-less I am happy to go with a "quiet" fan cooled variant.
It has too...
- Usenet NZB downloads, 50MB Virgin (6mb/sec)
- Handle on the fly transcode/stream Video to iPad, iPhone, PS3 - why
- Do I want an Ion motherboard at the very least?
Many thanks,
