I probably won't run a HD connected directly to the Touch, I'm talking strickly about USB vs SATA in my main computer streaming wireless to the Touch. I think I'll put a SATA in the case, then use a USB for backup only. When I said $3k-$5K for a music server, I'm talking building from scratch and

Yes, thats exactly correct. You just need to scroll down to the bottom of the file. Use the up/down arrow keys on the keyboard to scroll through the file. shift gets you down to the bottom of the file without scrolling through the whole thing. You can then scroll back up to see what was happening
