    Hi,

    Picked up a Sonos kit recently. But it's an expensive radio until I find out what NAS servers are compatible. The website gives fairly sketchy details. Just wondering if you recommend a particular NAS server (under €100) or if any customers have told you what they've bought etc?

    Thanks in advance!

    @LGM,


    Please take a moment to read the Charter here http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055564744 particularly the following:

    # If you see a post which is looking for a quote or advice from RS, please resist the urge to offer your opinion ! Such queries are not an open invitation for posters to make suggestions etc, these queries should be left to RS to answer. If queries or requests for quotes attracted everyone's opinion, the forum would be unworkable. This is not intended to prevent the usual chat and banter which you will regularly see on the RS forum.

    # If you have an opinion on some matter related to the items that Richersounds or The Philips Shop sell, or you wish to give people the benefit of your advice on some related issue, Please do not post it in this forum ! There are other fora on Boards in the Tech section on Home Entertainment or TV related topics, or in the Consumer fora, which are suitable locations for endowing Boardies with the benefit of any advice or opinion you wish to offer. Bearing in mind the purpose of this forum, posts along the lines described here are not appropriate and will be suitably snipped or deleted without warning. This approach is taken to ensure the workability of this particular forum and to ensure that general advice and discursive posts are made in the appropriate forum. This is not intended to prevent the usual chat and banter which you will regularly see on the RS forum.

    This is not a discussion forum and queries here are for Richersounds to answer.

    As a new user to Boards, it is worth noting that canvassing for trade (along the line of "PM me for advice..." ) pimping or shilling on behalf of a business is also unwelcome on Boards generally. If you wish to use Boards for advertising a business venture, feel free to contact the Boards Team - there's a link on the Boards home page or click here http://www.boards.ie/advertise/ .

    Hi there.

    The Western Digital My Book 2 and My World drives work with the Sonos. We have also has a Buffalo Linkstation drive used with our display system in the shop.

    There are lots of others that are listed on the Sonos site.

    Hope this helps.
