I'm looking to buy Logitech SqueezeBox Duet and would like to know if it will work with my DNS-323 (FW 1.09) ?

[tedfroop]

It should.  Just don't try running Squeezebox Server on it unless you have a lot of time on your hands. Squeezebox server has grown to be the everything app for Squeezebox and does not run very efficiently on a DNS-323 anymore.

What you will want to do is point your Squeezebox Server to your music directory on your DNS or if you are running Windows add a shortcut to your dns in your local music directory.

Planning to buy a Duet too, but I don't want to run a pc with the SB server. The DNS-323 I have should be good enough to share music to the Duet by itself. Now when the DNS-323 supports add-ons, shouldn't it be possible to write an add-on that share music to the Duet?

[dgoranss]

Not much interest for this issue. To bad, my DNS-323 has served me well, but next NAS will be a Netgear.

Make sure your next NAS advertises the features that you need

[dgoranss]

More important, I will chose a NAS that will be ready for the future and with a flexible team behind it. When I bought the DNS-323 I had no intention to us a Squeezebox. Time changes, so does services and the need for different services.

[jamieburchell]

And what funds those changes? Good will?

Good luck finding a product for a fixed price that does everything you will ever think of or need in the future!

[dgoranss]

Good question, who funded the features already delivered? The NAS is still in the market, new customers are paying for it.

[jamieburchell]

They are paying for what's advertised on the box, not some vauge hope as to what it might do in the future.
