Edd - thanks. Good to have the experience of someone who has already done it.

When you say 'import' is that a physical copy, so I end up with two copies of the files? Or a logical one where Sooloos builds an index (as Logitech media server does)? This matters as I may need to increase the disk storage on my NAS.

When you say 'all the data', I assume you mean the metadata (as well as file names containing accented characters, for example)? That could take some time with 1500 albums, even with dBpoweramp, perfecttunes and mp3tag. How long did it take you?
