What's the price now? I can actually use this as my NAS right?

Yes, it can.

But I wonder, for the NAS function, does the HDD must be inside the POHD? or no HDD inside, just external USB HDD also can function as NAS?

NAS or Network Attached Storage is not connected to your player directly but via the network (wired or non-wired) while external HDD is via USB port. Either way, the POHD works fine even if there's no internal HDD installed

Haiya... I know what is NAS la... doh.gif

The POHD is a media player AND has a NAS function in it... the question I hav is will i be able to access to the content of the USB HDD, that is connect to the POHD and the POHD is connect to my home network, from my other PCs at home.??

The Internal HDD are required to function as NAS. A simple mod the USB drive will become a shared drive on the network

Tested the Beta firmware with PPS. Watching the Bruce Lee The Game of Death II & it playback smoothly. I thought TM already throttle the P2P traffic  hmm.gif

from the forum, it didn't say MUST install an internal HDD for the USB HDD to be shared. i think internal HDD not required just need to mod the file to enable the NAS for USB HDD.

Can someone verify...?

Went to lowyat last weekend, the cheapest i found is 649. is that the lowest rate now? missed the pc fair... vmad.gif coz was watching lee chong wei playing... luckily he won... icon_rolleyes.gif

^ Yes it does play but u need to select the biggest file to start the movie unlike the Dvico where u can just select the folder and the movie plays automatically.

The biggest problem I find with the AcRyan is its network performance. Streaming 1080p content is a big NO. Once the scene gets a bit complex, it starts to stutter...and in case you're wondering, this is on a gigabit network..although the POHD only has 100Mb Ethernet. I sure hope they do something about the network performance in the next firmware update.

really?? but i saw few posts in the ACryan forum saying no problem streaming using LAN wor... haiiiii.... dunno what's the problem here... rclxub.gif
