When I play media from the NAS via NFS do I have to worry about buffering, or is that a bandwidth issue?
Decoding of the media files are done by the media player and not the NAS right?
Yap, bandwidth is the thing you should be most worried about.
NFS is most certainly the protocol you want to go for as it's one of the fastest ones ;)
I've been using NFS on both 2,4 Ghz and (now) 5 Ghz networks and haven't had any issues.
Streaming 1080p movies only. Never tried any fancy 4k stuff but I expect it work just fine (seeking might
take a little longer but don't quote me on that)
