Hi all,
First let me make it clear that i’m a complete newbie on all these stuff.
But I’m good in programming, it’s my day job (mainly Java)
so I think I’m not (…completely…) dumb.
Well I’ve just bought my order for a vero. 15min ago.
I was desperately looking for something to play my medias
Didn’t want to do what I’ve done 10 years before (grabbing an old’ notebook, connct it to TV, AV Receiver etc… and everytime hacking on it);
and yeah, desperately , close to buy one of the craps there when I stumble on Vero.
So I say “let it be, the time is now !”
let’s give it a try.
Now, I will wait for the shipping, meanwhile I want to prepare the stuff. This is why I’m asking the staff directly Can you list recommended hardware to complete the vero ?
I hope i’m clear I’ll be rebuilding my appliances from scratch all around the vero.
I have 2 main goals in mind :
a-/ enjoying my medias with no hassle via the vero who will be wired on ethernet, attached to my AV receiver and to the TV
b-/ using another storage attached to it as a NAS for a more work-related usage; backup; sharing office files…
Can I imagine things like one storage for the media streaming (music and movies)
and a second one for a NAS usage : backup things from my little home network ?
I know, you have really precise and specific requirements on the best parts to assemble to let vero gives it best !
And I think most of us will really like to enjoy the best from Vero.
So which sd card to order to extend from the 8gb shipped with Vero, to an extra 64g with same tested and certified quality ? I know Sam said something about it not be related to the Class but to some precise abilities.
And what about the hard drives I will feed the Vero ?
what’s the best pattern there for drives ? external e-Sata? usb3 ? ssd ?
I have a concern with my choice on the Vero : here i will have extra power supply for everything while ; as many power supplies as hard drives attached ? Ain’t this ruining all the extra low-power side of the Vero ?
Well I hope you got my concerns , and I wish you can help me as I ask you for best recommendations before starting buying all around amazon and ebay .
(Well if it matters , I’m in France. not in UK)
Thanks !
