Hi john

Depends on how good your network is, if its a wired (cat5 rj45 cable) you will be ok, if its WiFi, who knows lol  ;D

I run mine on wireless upstairs (with a good signal) and it streams videos fine for me, seraches and stuff like that take a few milliseconds longer but its cool  ;D.

nearly 600gb but im in the middle of cutting it down as  it should  speed things up
more ive got about 900gb of music in total so this will be the second time ive reduced
the library down however there is a lot of crap i wont play so just look at it as a spring clean
