Don't know what you've already read about Windows 10 and Samba. This article was useful to me https://www.techrepublic.com/article/how...indows-10/

Thanks Kent. I did try that yesterday using //router IP address/Seagate Expansion Drive but it didn't work. "Seagate Expansion Drive" is the disc name as reported by the router. This link made it look easy but sadly it didn't work despite Network Discovery being enabled, I tried both / and \ too. It doesn't show up if I choose "Browse" rather than entering the name in the box. The disc is NTFS formatted and works perfectly well on W10 and Pi machines. I'm not familiar with Samba yet but I'm sure I will need to be before long!

I assume you found this link Smart Hub 6 USB hard drive problem
As a data point regarding your planned NAS, I'm running OpenMediaVault on an Odroid HC1 with an SSD drive. It's serving tracks to moOde via SAMBA just fine. (NFS worked too when I tried it.) There's a learning curve associated with figuring out the OMV UI and turning on various services.
Attached is a screen capture of the Network Browser on my Windows 10 host. In the Computer section, you see the host OMV-HC1. If I click down through it I get to my SAMBA MUSIC directory. In the Media Devices section, you see a bunch of UPnP/OpenHome sources, including a DLNA server on OMV and the various servers running on two moOde hosts.
