No, it's a 3.5" HDD, with its own PS, so that is not the p

Perhaps there is another parameter to set in the serve

silent, fanless drive near your audio equipment. But of course, if your
PC is in another room, it's a different matter, and it could be more

OK, now what happens when using TinySC ? Are there several FLAC to PCM
decoding options ? And whic

So, can you precisely explain what John means by "streaming FLAC" and
