NAS4FREE vs. CentOS vs. Ubuntu Server

[chetmaster12]

So I am building a low end NAS using this board:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157574

This is mostly just for storing files, however I really do think that it is likely for me to stream media from it.


Which is the best option?

Either NAS4Free or Ubuntu Server will do just fine. You'd probably want to stay away from CentOS because it's oriented more towards system and power users.

NAS4Free because it takes the least technical skills to setup and everything is web based.

But can I stream media from NAS4FREE?

Yes, you can. See here: http://wiki.nas4free.org/doku.php?id=documentation:setup_and_user_guide:upnp
