Title: Which QNAP NAS?
Post by: B17NNS on December 08, 2017, 06:56:32 am

Hi All

I've got a master licence for JR23 which I am currently running on a Mac.

My goal is to get my files (I only use JR for audio) tucked away on a NAS that my DLNA amp can then play over ethernet.

I'd ideally like to run the software headlessly on the QNAP using JRemote for control.

So the question is what NAS to buy? I don't need lots of bells and whistles, its just holding FLAC files and running JRiver.

Would something like this be adequate?

Thanks in advance :)

A JRiver Id with an external USB drive would work.

That model would certainly do the job.

I have a TS-453mini that I use with essentially the same setup and it works well.
