The old Mac don't have an optical out so a DAC would be pointless but if I could link an SSD directly to the Pi setup ... or access Wifi to link to a NAS connected to the house router I am supposing it all could work
Does the Pi have WiFi or would that be another piggyback board required?
If so, can this all be controlled via the Mac (given it's limitations) or would I need a monitor card for the Pi?
I think you'd just put a USB WiFi dongle in one of the spare ports. They're cheap enough.
One of these days... I'm going to cut you into little pieces.
