I was planning to use a Intel NUC running Windows 10 as both a NAS and as media streamer for the TV. I will install Windows 10 on the NUC and install nas4free in a VMware virtual machine.
Is this Intel NUC powerful enough to run stream a video file from the virtual machine on the NUC itself, and play it in Windows 10? (Plus 8GB of DDR3 ram)
EDIT: This is a budget build, so no budget for more ram or a better processor.
