Because of space constraints on my current computer, I'm going to buying a NAS and putting my computer downstairs. However, I recently bought a sb3 as I've mentioned a million times already . Anyway my question is this: do i need to have slimserver on whenever I want to stream music and thus will i have to turn on my computer by going downstairs everytime i wish to listen to music, or is slimserver required only for the initial setup and then the sb3 can directly stream the music from the NAS?

I'm kicking myself for not buying a $200 computer on sale on black friday!
