My jukebox server - http://tinyurl.com/7nkdp - uses NTFS on
all its drives
and is readable from the Mac without any problems.  Presumably this is to
do
with the OS (XP Pro), something worth considering if you are a mixed mac/pc
household.

Are there any other issues with stand alone NAS devices from, for example,
streaming media players?
