I got a NAS device (Synology DS414) last week, finding that it has a steep learning curve, lots of settings and privelages to play with. I already had about 50GB of extensive DVD Portfolio that I want to copy to it. Storing them on the Synology and playing them on Apple TV through home sharing on iTunes on my iMac works fine.
