This is all the media for the media box in my living room (which is why I want the quiet). The box only has a wireless connection to the rest of the network, and while I'm sure said wireless network would be fast enough I'm not sure I want to clutter up the network with a constant stream of audio/video :)

If it was just going to be for network based backup - it'd be a non-issue. (Which reminds me, I should move my backup drives from something that I plug in to the laptop to something that is network mounted).
