I've been storing my music library and using a QNAP T-112 both with and without media server packages like Twonky and Minimserver. I could be wrong (I am in no way an expert) but as far as I know, you cannot connect the QNAP NAS directly to a device using the USB or eSATA but you can connect an external drive to it via these inputs. Having just moved from a UPnP environment/streamer set up to the Devialet 120 less than two weeks ago, I had to purchased a Mac Mini and connect the computer to the 120 via USB. At this time, it is proving to be the best solution.
However, I also have a LaCIe 2TB drive which contains my library backup. I could try connecting it directly to the 120 but can anyone suggest a control point/app to read and manage the library.
Ideally, it would be great to eliminate the computer and just use a control point and have the 120 be UPnP friendly.
EDIT- I should add, if anyone has any ideas on how I could perhaps try a few tests by installing a package on the QNAP, I am willing to try!
