The USB 3.0 connection gives me almost identical speeds to the eSATA. After I changed the BIOS on the i5 server, USB 3.0 worked fine. I just connected a new Haswell i7 laptop as the music server. I left my shoutcast for now on the i5 computer. The i7 server scanned the entire music library 33% faster. I gave up on the SSD upgrade. HP makes it too difficult. I don't need it anyway. Reconnecting all the players to the new server has been a bit problematic but having been with SB for 6 years now, I know the tricks.:cool: http://zzzone.net http://have-a-nice-day.org http://www.last.fm/user/zzzoneDOTnet http://somethingsomethingsomething.net dBpoweramp Cisco E4200 SBS 7.8 - i7 laptop - Win 8 64bit 3 Booms, 2 Radio, 1 Touch, 1 iPod Touch w/digital dock 2 controllers, various tablets/phones Various apps including iPeng, Logitech Android, etc. 'Library' (http://zzzone.net/photo/2009/music1.jpg): 233,000+ FLAC/MP3 files - 12 TB HD Onkyo TX-NR818, KEF Q300/Q200/iQ30, Outlaw LFM-1 Plus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jimzak's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17592 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=100561 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
