1478757 2021-07-19 07:28:00 I would switch to Amahi server its free and runs great. I used it for around 6 years before my ancient server died and I didn't bother with another one. gary67 (56)

Thanks everyone for your assistance.

A digital data stream should be Identical regardless of if it's coming from a windows share, a server, linux, a nas, whatever - it's just a file.

But I never have run a proper server, just a home made nas for a while and now a store bought one. Nas4free works pretty well for basic server duties, it's a fork of FreeNas but that has some tougher requirements these days due to the file system it uses so I find Nas4free better.

I have a fanless dual core amd 15w cpu embedded on a motherboard with 4gb of RAM that is too slow to run windows or even linux succesfully (they run but are horrible to use I tried) but it runs nas4free just fine and streams fullhd videos and lossless audio effortlessly.
Seems I'm a couple years out of date though, it has a new name xigmanas.com
