Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone could provide me with some questions on the product in the title.
I'm interested in buying a NAS for use with my HTPC (i3 Intel Nuc running OpenELEC) and general use of media around the house. I've found a great deal on Western Digital's 'Education Program' site - this 8TB (2 x 4TB WD Red drives) NAS for £266.
I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with WD NAS devices? If so, is it fairly straightforward to set up with Kodi? I've never had any experience with a NAS device before so I'm completely clueless when it comes to how I'd go about connecting my HTPC to this device.
I don't think I'll ever exceed 4TB of data - I currently have ~ 2TB of data (and I plan on using this in a RAID 1 setup) so I'm not worried about not being able to add drives a later date. Is there anything better that I could get for the price mentioned above?
Many thanks.
