NAS disk with iTunes server
Hi all
Does anyone know if there is some sort of NAS (with gigabit ethernet) disk device available that has a built in iTunes server ? I have looked at things like the Western Digital 1Tb NAS disk but they dont seem to have iTunes built in. I want to be able to point 2 Macbooks with iTunes at it for music.

Most of the qnap devices do.
I have a 209 but have never used the itunes as I don't use apple products.
Works fine as nas, web, ftp and twonky server tho so no reason to think the itunes wouldn't.

Qnap are brilliant although there are cheaper alternatives on the market that offer the same features. Torrent Download Manager, FTP, iTunes etc.
I've got a catalogue at work so I'll report back tomorrow. I can't comment how good they are though.

I have a D-Link DNS-323 and it works quite well. The firmware got upgraded in the last few months so that it finally works properly with the Xbox 360 -- as an iTunes servers it was always okay.
