G+_Cole Brodine Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I've done that with my Pi. I actually configured it as a wireless hotspot with a Media Server on board. I attached a USB hard drive to it with all my Kid's movies ripped onto the drive. When we're driving on long trips, the kids use Android Tablets to connect to the wifi hotspot from the Pi and stream movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 You absolutely can use the Pi as a NAS. Performance is so-so, but it works in a pinch.... hmmmmm... future project? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
