I'm in the process of building a new home and sorting out the design for all networking and cabling etc. One area I would like to cover and perhaps have is a storage drive near my router that I can store films and video files on that could then be accessed by any TV that has the ability to view them on (much like my Samsung does now).
What I would like to know is if this can be done over a network with CAT7 cabling that I intend to install anyway for example so that when the TV at the other end has the CAT7 cable connected they can access the storage device I have plugged in or is there a better solution? My other thought was to run USB cabling from a storage device located next to the router but that seems a bit excessive running USB cables everywhere?
Any ideas?
