First, I'll start off by saying that I've never set up a NAS before so this is my first go. I read through the process of setting it up and have done so. However, I'm also wanting to stream files from my NAS through my Xbox 360.
I began reading around for awhile and didn't realize most of the tutorials out there are for FreeNAS 7. I installed FreeNas 9.x so those were of no use.
Then I came across a forum post that said to install the miniDLNA plugin. However, since my machine is ancient, I am using UFS for my drive rather than ZFS. It is telling me that I need to have a ZFS volume to install miniDLNA. Is there any way around this? Or any other options?
I would use ZFS is my system could handle it, but again, my PC is an old one that was collecting dust.
System Specs:
AMD 3700
1 GB DDR2 RAM
500 GB Hard Drive
What are my options as far as streaming audio and video to the Xbox 360? I would buy a new box for my NAS setup if I could afford it. Obviously the hardware on my current one are borderline unacceptable it I want the server to remain stable.
