Are you sure you enabled file sharing at Settings Advanced USB SD
Storage Sharing?
SSH and file sharing are two different things and are enabled
separately.
By enabling SSH
For sure, if you enable sharing, the name of your Touch should appear
under Network in Windows Explorer and once logged on you should be
able to drag and drop to any USB/SD connected media. Note: you cannot
access the system drive this way - for that you need WinSCP.

On which side did the pad come off? If it was on the output side,
perhaps you could make a shunt directly from the input pad to the RCA

Well the RCA's are on top so it is the land closest to me, furthest
away from the RCA's.

Though I did coupling cap mod (though not in a perfect way it has to
be), the analog output was still noisy and fatiguing.
Hence I turned on to spdif output, which gave me a real surprise.
Digital out now sounds much better
Because it's cheap for how it sounds.

My former source was a SB3 with a Lavry DA-10. When I got the Touch a
year and a half ago, I synced and level matched the analog outs of the
Touch against the SB3/Lavry combo.
After two weeks of comparison, I found I couldn't reliably tell the
difference between the two set-ups, so I sold the

Leave it as it is - your cap mod does not impact the digital output.
I wouldn't get the PS modded until AFTER you have tried a decent DAC.
Even after that it may not be worth doing if you are using the digital
output. PS mods have much greater impact on the
