Ok...in my quest for a way to put all my DVDs in one spot, I've come up with a twist.....
Just to give some background.....my first attempt was the Sony 300+1 DVD changer. Other than it going tits up after2 years, it was acceptable. Then I got the Sony 400 DVD changer. POS from the start. Sony eventually bought it back because they were as tired as I was of sending it back and forth for repair.
Then I thought about an HTPC......ooooooo......coooooool.....but haven't been able to get it together HW-wise. My limitation seems to be output HW.
So....then I got me a couple PS3s.......
.....Home Media!!!!!
....but still....how to get the DVDs to file......hmmmmm.....conundrum. Build a big ass PC with shit-tons of storage. Then I can fold with it too.... 
Ok....now....what about NAS????? Still sounds like the previous setup, but without the folding ability.
I'm still trying to find a good way to rip DVD to disk without sacrificing quality. Once I find that, I suppose 90% of the work will be done.
ANyway....I've got a wired gigabit ethernet set up. While I do "work" with network attached storage, I really don't know much about it, i.e., type of OS, cost of OS, etc.
So......any ideas??????
