  1. There seems to be a lot of NAS experts on this forum, so I am hoping one of you can help me. I want to purchase a NAS, then load my audio and video content onto the NAS. Once loaded, I plan to stream the audio content from the NAS to my Sonos system. I plan to stream my video content from the NAS to my iOS devices (iPad, iPhone) and to my Apple TV. All of my audio content is in Apple lossless format and resides in my iTunes library on my iMac. All of my video content is in H.264 m4v files, and also resides in my iTunes library. My content is DRM free. I plan to copy my iTunes library (not move my library) onto the NAS. I've narrowed my NAS choice down to two devices: the QNAP TS-251 and the Synology DS214play. On paper, the QNAP has better specs (a 2.4 GHz quad core processor versus a 1.6 Ghz dual core on the Synology), more USB and LAN ports, and an HDMI port. Plus the QNAP is about $60 less expensive. But most people on this forum seem to lean more toward Sinology devices, so maybe I am missing something? Can anyone comment on the QNAP versus Synology devices that I am considering? Thanks
