Hi.
I am considering buying a NAS to store my large collection of music, which is nearly 1 TB large, made mostly of 320 kbps MP3 files.
After many days testing players, I've come to the conclusion that MusicBee is probably the best free player and have now succeeded in customizing it, so that it fit my needs.
Yet, I still have some questions to ask before buying my NAS.
1. First of all, will it be possible to use MusicBee on my computer in order to navigate through my files located on the NAS (connected to my computer via WIFI) and to give the NAS the order to read the music directly on my wireless Marantz M-CR510 audio amplifier ? If it is possible, how to to it ?
2. If it is possible, then, given that my WIFI connection is not specificaly slow, will the navigation be fluid enough to be confortable ? I guess it depends on the NAS specifications... I am wondering wether it's important to buy a powerful NAS or wether a "normal" one would be enough, given the fact that I won't use it to stream videos.
I'm actualy considering buying one of theese :
SYNOLOGY-DS215j (160 €) :

https://www.qnap.com/i/fr/product/model.php?II=142I'm wondering wether it's necessary or not to by the last one, which is more powerful, but also more expansive. If some of you also have invested in one of these NAS, what do you think ?
If necessary, I also give you my computer's specifications :
