designed to run headless. Quite inexpensive, very small and works
Hi
If you are UK based, have a look at Tranquilpc. website.
They manufacture fanless small home servers and fit drives to your
requirements.
I use a T7 Home Server running Microsoft Windows Home Server Version 1.
It has been updated by Tranquil and has performed extremely well for me.
It is

Usually barebones units come with the drive cables you need, and it
appears that this one does, too. Did you take a look at the manual on
the website you linked to:

These days you can grab name brand netbooks for under $200 that are not
only whisper quiet and non obtrusive but which also easily run LMS. I
use a couple of Acer's in dedicated applications and couldn't be
happier.

How much storage space do you need?
I ask because if you get a tiny nettop type system then you may be
forced to use an external hard drive (or drives). That's not a terrible
thing, but the extra cabling and wall wart can be messy and it somewhat
defeats the purpose of using such a small box for

Huh, snarky? You said you were going to add
I added a async USB DAC (Audioengine D1) to one of my systems but prior
to doing that upgraded the server to LMS 7.8 beta and it is sending PCM
to both SBT and the one loaded w/ EDO is working well. Was not prompted
to upgrade firmware so that is still on 7.7.2-r9663.

Hi Aubuti, do you have one of these units ? They do look appealing but

Hi Triode,
I want to give my impressions about EDO for = 96kHz playback. My SBT
feeds my EA OffRamp via USB which then goes into my DAC via S/PDIF. IMO,

shame you can't hear the difference youself triode, otherwise we
wouldn't be having these navel gazing discussions.
do you hear a difference between 0.5 and 0.6 ? was there an attempt at
improving the sound in 0.6 ?
I am still interested in understanding why the usb irq is being called
