    Hi Everyone:  I've been setting up my WHS and was wondering if there is a performance difference in setting the shared music, video, etc folder for streaming vs. just pointing clients to that folder to play files.  I am not super technical, so I guess I was wondering if there's an appreciable difference between the two.  Thanks in advance for any insight on this.

    Data flow appears at about same speed doing it either way.  Like wise in performance.

    In my case I am streaming to an Xbox 360, which isn't possible unless you are using Media Connect.

    I would think however, if you are talking about streaming PC-to-PC, there would be no difference in performance whether you are streaming or just connecting directly to a shared folder over your network.
