Like all music streamers, the resource requirements are smaller than the smallest DIMM module you can buy, and the CPU requirements are smaller than the slowest CPU you can buy.
It's got to be Linux based if it works on "any PC". SSD is cheap and ubiquitous. There are issues, long term, with reliability, and personally I would choose spinning rust for media files (the entropy makes them bad candidates for compression, which most SSD controllers attempt to do). That said, I wouldn't actually worry about using an SSD for both at the same time, if that's all I had to hand and I could afford one large enough for all my media. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ drmatt's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59498 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106578 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
