Well a bit of bad news. I had moved a while back the Mp3 data along with a lot of other general data (personal) onto a cheap and nasty NAS (Western Digital World Book Edition II)
This recently had a disk failure which I noticed and I was thinking of options between getting a more robust NAS box or a new Server which would have extra redundancy (Power supplies proper hardware RAID etc) and I could double up as a media center too hopefully.
Well my options were coming down to either the HP Data Vault X510 or a ML350 G6. Unfortunately the POS NAS box decided to pack in before I did anything and stopped working.
I tried power cycling hoping it might reboot and recover itself but no it wouldn't even turn back on after that.
So I am currently in the process of recovering my data through another machine which is looking promising but will take some time. I will then probably just run the files off my machine for now and I am hoping I might end up getting the ML350 G6 with Server 2008 SBS and just run everything off that. Depends on costs at this point.
In the mean time you'll have to chill out while data is being recovered and things get reconfigured.
UPDATE:
Ok well the data has been mostly recovered and now the Music is being shared off my main PC. The Radio is back online and functioning as per normal.
Will post more details later with final solution.
