Windows Raid 6 or FreeNAS?

I currently have 3 PCs all with media on them, as well as one Netgear ReadyNAS Duo.

Now I just want to create a media serer instead. I dont want it to be active 24/7, but sleep after a given period and wake up on lan if any PC tried to connect to it.

Dont have enough for a full mirroring, so was thinking installing windows on a small drive then setting up a Raid 6 with 4 hdds, so if hdds fail I can swap then out and rebuild the data.
But I've read some people recommend FreeNAS
