I've got an external 1TB RAID hard drive which is currently plugged into my laptop. Ideally I'd like to get this on our home wi-fi network rather than having it plugged into the laptop. Two reasons for this:
-Have just got a Sonos system and this setup would hopefully allow access to iTunes library without the need for the laptop.
-Access to the drive can be a pain if using the laptop elsewhere in the house, other than the desk where the drive is.
My router is from Virgin Media and doesn't have a connection for serving USB external drives. However even if it did I suspect it wouldn't be a fast connection. I have a Raspberry Pi currently doing not a lot but also think that this may not be fast enough.....
The drive has eSATA and USB connections.
Any suggestions?
