SAMBA or NFS share on NAS?

[wadada]

This is just a personal opinion, but if you have other, non-Linux computers on the LAN which might need access to your music library, I'd suggest using SAMBA shares. It's been reliable for me and fast enough for what we do.

Either choice is fine with moOde, though, so it comes down to choosing the protocol you're more comfortable setting up and administering on your LAN. Happily, whether a proprietary NAS such as Synology or an open-source one such as OpenMediaVault, or even a bare-bones Linux box, you can run either or both.

I did an Music Source scan with a quite huge database. Turned out that the SAMBA share was scanned much faster than the NFS share. I will test it further with SAMBA on one moode player and with NFS on another moode player.
