Right guys as I see it I have the above two options.
My htpc will be used to also rip the blurays so needs to have reasonible amount of power.
For the HTPC with a NAS was going to go for one of these from eskro

probably the AMD one and maybe the SilverStone Grandia SST-GD05B case instead pair this up with the QNAP TS410 as recommended by Poofyhairguy.
For the larger HTPC/Media server I was looking at using a similar spec to above but using a lian li v354 and starting off by putting 4TB in it

I have read Poofyhairguys comments on nas is the preffered way but I was just wondering by using this larger style case if it will make it not too much more noisy than the first option especially as I am having a higher powered HTPC with either option!!!
