If this is a question (please clarify a bit, and use question marks |
| 8 |
when appropriate!): Of course it has a negative impact -- opposed to |

built-in storage, which should be faster than network based storage :-) |

But if you have Windows clients, that's almost the only option you |
| 12 |
have. Well, you could go with WebDAV, but I wouldn't recommend that, |
| 13 |
it's most probably not nearly as stable as Samba. |

Even for Linux/Unix clients (given they have proper CIFS/SMB support) |
| 16 |
Samba is a capable option for a networked file system. |

OTOH, there's Windows SFU, which you can use to mount NFS shares, but I |
| 19 |
heard it's a pain in the *** to set it up. |
