Another new N1A owner here, would you please be kind enough to pm the instructions for installing MinimServer?

I will.

Quote:I also have a question for you. I'm deciding atm how I'm going to set up the Melco I was planning to use it in raid1 configuration but I noted another user a few pages back stating that both he and you felt the N1A sounded best configured as a spanned array.
My question is if this is truely your opinion and if so was the comparison done using N1A as a renderer, nas or both?
Many thanks in advance.

I didn't do a direct comparison myself but from offline conversations with the other user together with my own experiences I am convinced that the sound is better with a spanned array. It should be fairly easy for you to do a comparison yourself to check whether you agree wth this. The N1A was used as a NAS with a Linn KDS or KDSM connected to the N1A's player port.
