What kind of read speeds are you getting? My NFS speeds are horrible with the Synology NAS, about a quarter of my FTP or WebDav.

I'm using the DS210j, if you don't need massive amount of storage, it's a capable little box. I'd probably have something more powerful if I thought I needed it to handle multiple HD video streams.

I use a single bay DS110j and feel exactly the same way that mclog does about it... I actually bought two of them so that one can back up the other... Together they ended up being cheaper then a single DS210j and now i have a hot spare =)

I stream 720p all over the house (one TV is even WiFi only...) and can do 1080 just fine. All players use SMB with no issue at all. The Synoogy is also hosting my MySQL library and thumbs.

Is there a simple way of measuring the speed between say my Boxee Box and the Synology NAS for SMB and NFS?

If the boxee has a file manager just copy over a file from a smb or nfs source and measure the time.
