Review- QNAP NMP-1000: Media Player Merangkap NAS
Sekitar awal tahun 2010, Qnap merilis produk NMP-1000, produk multimedia player yang dilengkapi dengan internal storage dan konektivitas jaringan. Sekilas, kedua feature tersebut terdengar biasa untuk ukuran perangkat sejenis saat ini. Namun, tunggu dulu, sesuai dengan namanya—“NMP” adalah kependekan dari Network Multimedia Player), NMP-1000 juga dilengkapi kemampuan untuk berubah menjadi Network Attached Storage (NAS) saat terhubung lewat port Ethernet ke jaringan rumah.Tak semua media player yang beredar di pasaran memiliki kemampuan unik tersebut!
Selain itu, NMP-1000 juga dibekali dukungan format file multimedia yang relatif lengkap. Dengan System-on-Chip (SoC) Sigma SMP8635 yang dimilikinya, Media player ini sanggup memutar beragam jenis content, mulai dari file AVI dan MP3 hingga Blu-Ray ISO atau FLAC. Daftar lengkap format dan codec file yang didukung dapat dilihat di tabel berikut:
