Hi,
I am totally confused about new inclusions in my Home Theatre.
My basic requirement is 1 single storage (2-3 TB should suffice) where I store all my movies and music files (around 120 GB and expanding) along with around 67 GB of photos. This storage is available over the WiFi throughout and can be accessed through any device available over the WiFi.
Second and important requirement is that I want to use my Macbook Pro (mid 2010 model) to mirror on my Samsung Smart TV (UA40D5500) already connected to my Home Theatre system so that the laptop is free from any HDMI cable requirement to mirror content on TV. Basically I'd be accessing the Single storage content through my Macbook and mirror it on the TV.
The simplest solution could have been a combination of Apple TV and Times Capsule, but my mid 2010 Mac does not support Airplay.
I have read quite a bit on Network Access Storage, HTPC (not really sure if I need this) and Time Capsule and am totally confused.
Please help out in which direction should I start researching.
Thanks in advance.
