I just got the Linksys 1900ac router with external esata connection. It has a pretty nice administrative interface for sharing out an external hard drive. Currently, I use Windows Media Center with a Goflex NAS right now to store and play my movie library. I would like to up the storage capacity. Any thoughts on just buying an external HD and connecting it to this router as a low cost solution? Here are some points to consider:
1. Power - I don't want it to be spinning all the time. A NAS probably has more control over spinning down the drive than this setup would. Should I be conserned?
2. Security - I don't want there to be any consern that my data could be insecure.
