DS212+ for home use with PC's/laptops and PS3

[mr_nice!]

I would like a nice shiny NAS and have been told that the DS212+ is extremely good device and would like to know a bit more about it.

I already have a USB hard drive which I would like to drop the contents of it on to the NAS. It has all my MP3's, Video, Documents and Photo's.

I use file structures which are relatively nested, for instance:
>Audio
>> MP3s
>>> B
>>>> The Beatles
>>>>> Abbey Road
>>>>>> track01.mp3

I want the NAS device to always be available to wired and wireless PC's/laptops (Windows XP, Vista and newer) as a mapped drive and be able to get access to all folders just as if it was a local drive at any time.

My old USB drive is always plugged in to my PS3 and I would like to be able to play my music, videos and photos exactly the same as I do now on my PS3.

My questions are
1. For the purposes I have mentioned is this a good drive to get
2. Will anything complain about the file structure I have. for instance will I be able to play an album on my PS3. I have 10's of thousands of songs and a flat structure would be almost impossible to manage. Will it be easy to get my PS3 to point to the device and find and play track01.mp3 as mentioned above

Nice

Yes, this is well suited for your purposes. I have the same device and I have no problems streaming/sharing files across the wired network in the house.

The PS3 will be able to handle your file structure without any problems.
