Melco Audiophile NAS

[Dorsetalex]

I'm very much a novice so thank you in advance for your patience and help.
I've just received an old QNAP ts-220 NAS which is connected to my LAN via ethernet. This QNAP is then connected to a Cambridge Audio 851N also via ethernet. I have a further 851N in another room connected to the network using wireless.
I'm considering getting a Melco to replace the QNAP, install MinimServer2 and improve sound quality. I would either connect my 851N via the "player ethernet" on the Melco or USB from the Melco.
My question relates to the second 851N in another room. Would this machine still find and play my music files on the network now they are held on the Melco?
Ideally, I would like the Melco as the only NAS. I will using it for music only.
Any advice and tips would be gratefully received. Apologies if I sound clueless
