Has anyone got NAS that they don't need looking to transfer my music and a few video's to a hard drive.

So I can play with a WiiM Pro Wireless WiFi

FYI, avoid any NAS that has no recent firmware updates. Probably find its stuck to old protocols such as SMB v1 that are not "safe" anymore. I have such a beast for backups, and have to modify Windows after each update to keep the access working... eventually I won't be able to and the NAS will be in the bin.

I've got a DS115j sitting around gathering dust (no drives in it). That something you might be interested in? Does $50 (excl. shipping) sound reasonable?

Sometimes I use big words I don't always fully understand in an effort to make myself sound more photosynthesis.
