NAS to Media Server

Once again I am out of storage on my 2TB MyBook World Blue Rings. I am considering a transition to a media pc/server rather than buying another NAS being as I stream lots of items, and most of it is stored on my NAS when not used. I looked around for building guides or ideas, but I would rather have some honest imput from the tech community. If you have any info on what consider when building or what not to do... that would be most helpful. software or hardware ideas. I do know I need adaquate storage being as the 2TB + I have is not enough.


I currently use Playstation Media Server on my Win7 pc to stream to my PS3 in my living room. I am sure that is just fine for what I do now, but like I said I am open to suggestions. Thanks!
