Hi All,
I know absolutely nothing about dedicated NAS so was hoping the community could lend some assistance to get me started on what to know, where/what to read and any recommendations.
I have a Sony KD-75XF9005 TV (aka XF90) which runs Android firmware. I currently have the VLC app for video and would like to stream video files (mostly 1080p, 4k, x264, x265, mp4, mkv) from a network drive. I previously used my Netgear X4S router with its built in 'Readyshare' feature coupled with a 4tb USB 3 hard drive. This was absolutely perfect and met all my needs without any issues whatsoever. It's only in the past year or so (not really sure how long...) that this readyshare feature has beome terribly unreliable, bricked 2 hard drives into read only and frequently does not allow files to be accessed properly on any device.
What might people suggest?
