Windows 8 Libraries and NASes

[Ackis]

I currently use a DNS-323 that I picked up back when I had no idea what a NAS was.

One thing that's frustrated me since Windows 7 is that my libraries don't play nice with the network locations on the NAS. I know the tricks to get them to work (symbolic links for example) however I'm wondering if there's a decently priced/performing NAS out there that does play nice. I haven't seen anything at all in my searching, and I really don't have the need to move to a full blown Windows server.

Thought I'd ask you folk for advice.

I know Win 7 has "libraries". But I've never used them; didn't see the need for that abstraction.

Some programs/devices only play stuff that's located in the libraries.
