Do you use a network attached storage (NAS) server as a "media server" for your PlayStation 3 and if so, which one?

Did you have any problems settings it up and/or do you have any problems in its day-to-day use?


The reason I ask is because I recently purchased a NETGEAR Stora and despite my best efforts, I have not been able to get it to RELIABLY work as a media server (most of the time my PlayStation 3 can't see it), even using a wired connection and after seeking technical support from NETGEAR... Frustratingly, I also have to login to the NAS server EVERY time I start my computer.


Therefore, I'm looking at alternatives, NAS-based or otherwise, and would like to hear what you all use...

I use Connect360 for my 360, and I believe there is one from the same company for the PS3.

Further to my previous blog with the promo marketing stuff (i.e. crap I give away to help promote the name but didn't really expect people to buy) I've now started selling shirts/clothes.
