NAS File System Best Practice?
Posted: Fri Aug 17, 2012 10:24 am
Hey guys,
I just set up my 412. It's really only going to be NAS for Movies, TV, Music and Photos. The vast majority of the time, I will just be accessing my media via network shares and played locally on whatever computer I'm on (I can't see myself using the multimedia station, unless maybe the odd time I want to use Qmobile...). What I'm wondering is how I should be organizing things.
Option 1:
Put my "Movies", "TV", "Music" and "Photos" directories as their own shares
Option 2:
Put my "Movies", "TV", "Music" and "Photos" directories as subfolders in the "Multimedia" share.
What would YOU do, and what would be any advantage or disadvantage of each option?
Thanks for any constructive input.
