Sounds complicated to me Ted...

I wanted a simple way to copy samples between machines (Macs, Pcs), and I
wanted a backup at the same time. Setting up a NAS server, with the
services like FTP and friends already installed, it was a quick win.

So I set up a directory for all music related stuff. I can access it with
FTP, SMB. So I manage it with my PC using SMB, and transfer samples are
anything else with either protocol, whatever machine I want. I can even
record something on my Android smartphone and dump it there.

I'm changing my NAS for one with mirror drives in the next month or so, so
I'm even more secure.
