Title: LAN Dock. Post by: Gerard on January 22, 2016, 10:42:58 am Peter,
I still have my music on a HDD in a dockingstation. Would this work? The LAN Connection? Thought i res somewhere it would be not a good thing (NAS) http://orico.en.alibaba.com/product/538499452-210447828/NAS_HDD_DOCKING_STATION_USB3_0_1000Mbps_LAN_port_ORICO_8618_NAS.html :) Title: Re: LAN Dock.

There is nothing wrong which such a thing, BUT you are completely 100% fully on your own. :) If it does not work right out of the box (take 50% on that) then I can not help and nobody will be able to (unless by sheer coincidence someone uses the same). Real compatibility with such a thing is usually far away and thus it won't do what a normal Windows OS would and which is the only thing I (XXHighEnd) obviously can depend on. On a side note it would be a good thing if someone would be able to find something cheap (like 20 euros) which works for everybody. And then still : For me it can't work because the largest HDDs at this moment are 8TB (I think) and that is not sufficient for me. I still have ~10 HDDs mounted in my music server (no, not all of 8TB - haha). Peter Title: Re: LAN Dock.
