Quick USB question


I currently have a Node (2021) streamer and it has only one USB port.  Does someone make a decent “Y” adapter? I currently have a 4TB hard drive in it and would like to try using the USB as an output to my DAC.

I’m not sure if it will work. Anyway, with one thing going in and the other going out, not at the same time of course.

Thanks in advance.

No question better quality streamers make a huge difference… limited by how good your DAC and rest of your system is. I have probably used a dozen different streamers over the last twenty years and finally started getting audiophile quality streamed music when I got my first Aurender. 
 

Also, the best streaming service is Qobuz… I don’t think they do MQA. I think I remember MQA from Tidal. MQA was a good idea that came too late. Qobuz has over 500,000 high resolution albums. I would recommend that service.
