My suggestion is to use the configuration in the title: - A Raspberry Pi 3 (better an Odroid if You have a large archive of music); - Max2Play software (that include LMS and other services), or PicorePlayer as You prefer (I use Max2Play as server, Picoreplayer as client); - An external 3.5 HD (size of your choice) that go to sleep when not in use (a 2.5 hd drain power from Raspberry and this is not the best solution); - Sometimes make a backup of the music in another HD (I use FreeFile Sync), no need of NAS, RAID, ecc.
PRO: - very cheap; - low power consumption; - NOISELESS (!!!!); - very simple also for who never used Linux/Unix CONS: - N/A ;-) 1 SB v.1 (now unused), 1 SB Classic, broken :-(, 1 Duet, 3 Boom, some SOC (Odroid, RPi2, RpiZeroW) as player Logitech Media Server 7.9 on Odroid U3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ RiccardoR's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=40 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106844 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
