1. Would I be better off just having the files download straight to my NAS or is it faster to download files to SSD/Extract then move to NAS? I'm considering on buying 64 GB m4 Crucial (I think that should be enough?)
2. I'm going to be running Windows 7 as the OS, as I'm more familiar with it, but would I be better off running Linux (performance wise)? I'm not concerned with boot up times... I'm more concerned with reliability.. Basically if it goes down... it comes right back up.
My HTPC Build (thanks eskro):
CPU: AMD Athlon II X2 250 Regor
Motherboard: MSI 880GM-E41
Wireless Card: ASUS PCE-N3
Graphics Card: Asus EN210 Silent
Memory: OCZ 6GB
