A good choice, just make sure to get a good NAS as some NAS are known to have slower transfer rates. For NAS, better do some research online and get the best possible option that suits your budget. biggrin.gif

Oops sorry was sleepy at that time, misread the '+' sign, thought you wanted to get POHD2 and a NAS separately. sweat.gif

Yes it can be done also but of course it would be better to get a dedicated NAS. Also, make sure you use a green HDD, do not put performance HDD or it can get very hot inside the player.

Hi OKLY, some info for you regarding NAS. We do not recommend WD Green because it coz a lot of problem to the NAS. When the NAS not reading, the green will stop spining. But when we wake up the NAS, the green baby a bit lazy to wake up slowly and coz the NAS cannot find the green baby and indicated that this green baby is a bad boy and your NAS will be huha... cry.gif . So, do your choice carefully.

That's what i facing now... gosh... the green is way to slow and cause the player HANG!... that means i need to get another HDD and migrate my file, again? cry.gif

Anyway, i love the HD2 player... lovely quality thumbup.gif
