Has any one ever used a HDR as a nas box?

Well, i thought i should let you all know that i bought a HDR off ebay. When it arrived i set it up to see if it was OK before i installed the custom firmware, i didnt want to rush things so i waited two or three minutes! before i installed the cfw and it works a treat! all i need now is support...

Hi af123, got to agree with you about the custom firmware, its a definite deal breaker.

That's what i keep saying to the wife, but she wont have another woman in the house! on a serious note, i have read somewhere that the 1TB versions have problems, but seeing as you have three, i take it you don't agree?

Thanks for suggesting that Black Hole, i've checked, and it is ok. I've had a play around with it this morning, and where I think I've gone wrong is expecting the hdd's I have shared to show up in networking on the hummy, this is not the case, nothing shows up except the laptop (when its on).
