I am not an expert technically or an extremely knowledgable user, but I am fairly familiar in general with computers and with audio gear. I would like to implement a network audio configuration (on an existing Ethernet network) of nas feeding a PS Audio Direct Stream dac with bridge. I would like to control with an ipad and perhaps with the Lightning or Lumin app. The current device serving as a nas is a Western Digital My Cloud Mirror. It is DLNA & UPnP compliant and runs on a Linux base.

Can Minimserver be installed on this nas, or will I need to get something like a Synology?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again.

There isn't a MinimServer installation package for the My Cloud Mirror.

If you are somewhat familiar with Linux commands, it should be possible to login to the NAS using SSH and install the MinimServer Linux ARM download by following the instructions on this page.

I would be interested to hear how you get on with this. If you have any problems or questions, please post here and I will do my best to help.
