    Recommendations to connect a NAS to Samsung Series 6

    100 euro difference is not that much in the long run. I hear your concern, but if it were me, I'd get the Asustor or find another unit that has a quad core celeron.

    Recommendations to connect a NAS to Samsung Series 6

    1) Do you run Plex on the NAS itself? Or do you need a PC connected when using it? I run Plex on the NAS, and connect to Plex through its Web interface. So any PC will do. You can also access the nas from an Android device using an app called BubbleUp. 2) Do you have suggestions on the NAS? I...

    Recommendations to connect a NAS to Samsung Series 6

    I have a straightforward nas streaming setup that works well for me. The nas contains all the media files, and is running Plex as the DLNA media Server software. My Panasonic smart TV can recognize Plex and display Plex's library on the screen. Plex's library is just a fancy listing of the...

    Microsoft hits a new low, now pushing 10 via IE

    This kind of broad statement doesn't add anything and can't be backed up. For every example of SW turning to crap, I can show you the opposite. And talk about creativity. There are really creative changes coming all the time into the windows world. Just open your eyes.

So, I'd buy a system with a little horsepower. Stay away from Atom units and get one based on the Celeron. An excellent 4 bay unit can...

    Do we even need the typical 1-year license for AV software with Windows 10?

    This is just my opinion, but I used 3rd party AV for years without incident. Since W10, I've been using Defender solely. Again, without incident so far. My guess is that Defender alone is OK so long as you have safe surfing habits.

    RECOMMENDATION: Laptop ?

    I would actually look at the MSI Gaming GT series of notebooks. They are rock solid top end machines (I have two). Look at the GT72S Dominator G (6th Gen) (GTX 970M). It's got a top end mobile CPU and really good graphics...

    Did in-place upgrade from Windows 7 to 10. Now constant timeouts, errors, unusable

    I have had alot of experience with issues similar to yours. I've never found a good solution to fixing service timeouts, other that reinstalling the OS.

    Cheapest outlet for 10?

    If you have windows 7 or 8.1, you can install it in the system and do a free upgrade to 10. Just a thought.

    Dell/Alienware worst company there is

    That chargeback was kind of a dik move. I know 3 weeks is a long time, but it is within reason.
