Hi Spinaltap....
However, for the rest of us who are using a MDMS or considering one, the overnight availability of cheaper MDMS compatible QNAP storage is most welcome by all followers.
There are many threads on this forum that explain in far more detail all of the ins and outs of MDMS and hopefully Carl will chip in with a link to one or some of the most informative threads or links.
Meanwhile trust me when I say that you are definitely in the minority with respect to the QNAP storage news.
You're kidding, right?
I must have been sleeping throughout the entire Sooloos unveiling/demonstration at the HH outing at the Mothership (I'm number 6 in the first HH group pix, by the way).
You must forgive me for not wanting to spend around �4,000 to ensure redundancy in buying a MD600/MS600 - because I don't want to risk inevitable disk failure in buying a �2,000 MC200 (it
will fail, it's just a matter of when). If you could open up the MC200 yourself to change the disk for a larger capacity or replacement that would be a different matter.
That's why I was enquiring whether or not it was possible to use an MS200 with a Meridian-enabled QNAP. I thought it was a reasonable question to ask.
Also, if reviews are to believed, the MS600's audio capabilities are significantly superior to a MC200.
MS600 vs MC200 It would seem, therefore, that the MC200 is somewhat compromised by comparison.
Even so, you must forgive me for not understanding why, if you already own an MD600 (with integral redundancy), and you already own a different NAS than QNAP, you would want to spend even more money on another NAS just because Meridian says its the only NAS that is capable of archiving your music library.
Surely, it's more cost-effective for customers to swap-out the hard-drive of their MD600's for larger capacity drives rather than spending several times the cost of adding a high-end QNAP plus additional drives?
