nitinmukesh123 11 Report post Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) Hi, I have 4 external hard disks which I use to store media and play media through bluray player. The issue is I have to move harddisk between PC (to copy the downloaded media) and bluray player (to play the files). The bluray player is DLNA enabled (SimplyShare to connect & stream all entertainment wirelessly) http://www.philips.co.in/c/home-theater-systems/crystal-clear-sound-smart-tv-htb5540d_94/prd/ Is there any device using which I can connect all HD to one device and can copy the media from PC wireless and play the files on bluray player. The device should support streaming HD content (huge files) without lag. I am basically tired of pluggin-unplugging and moving the harddisks. Many thanks for any inputs. Is this the kind of device which will do the trick? http://www.homeshop18.com/verbatim-mediashare-mini-home-network-storage-97329-silver-imported/computers-tablets/networking-devices/product:15991893/cid:3299/ Edited January 27, 2014 by nitinmukesh123 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nitinmukesh123 11 Report post Posted March 1, 2014 Sorry for the late reponse. Many thanks for your inputs. Recently I came to know that broadband connection will be available in my society and they said that I can buy my own ADSL2 modem for that. I have shortlisted the following 2 models to serve the purpose 1. ADSL2 modem 2. Wifi hub 3. For DLNA streaming http://www.flipkart.com/netgear-n600-wireless-dual-band-gigabit-adsl2-modem-router-dgnd3700/p/itmd6ffbdjgc8xgj?pid=RTRD6FYY7B26SHXC&srno=b_4&ref=6d2df226-bc10-438d-b044-4265ac48e570 http://www.flipkart.com/cisco-linksys-x3500-n750-dual-band-wireless-router-adsl2-modem/p/itmdhtwhrhazkfyf?pid=RTRDHTNMPYMG38PV&srno=b_3&ref=6d2df226-bc10-438d-b044-4265ac48e570 A bit unsure about the above mentioned products as they have mixed feedback any suggestions.
