| Which external SSD for music streaming? Except for noise and reliability is there any further advantage of using an external ssd instead of hdd for streaming music? | |
| Which external SSD for music streaming? @benanders Perfect! Got a great deal on a Crucial MX500 SSD, so I will go for that one. Thanks again. | |
| Which external SSD for music streaming? @benanders Just to be sure, a Sata drive in a USB 3.1 case will work with the USB 2.0 input socket of the streamer? | |
| Which external SSD for music streaming? @russbutton If only using TV, yes. But who does that in 2024? What I already learned from this conversation is that 1) I should go for a reliable brand ssd, 2) Mb/s will always be sufficient for only streaming music 3) I can choose between an ex... | |
| Which external SSD for music streaming? @roccity True; some titles I played a lot already disappeared (while they still are in Spotify). Problem is, you never know in advance which ones will disappear, and buying everything I like will be a fortune. | |

| Which external SSD for music streaming? @audioman58 You mean the USB cable from SSD to streamer? | |
| Which external SSD for music streaming? Perfect! | |

| Which external SSD for music streaming? Thanks. If streaming sounds just as good as ripped CDs then I may do that too. Then 2tb could be sufficient. | |
| Which external SSD for music streaming? Maybe I better get 4tb to be on the safe side. | |
| Which external SSD for music streaming? That sounds good, I will check that. So that will be fast enough I guess. A Metronome DSS is on its way. French high-end company. I got a demo for a good price. On paper it has everything I need :-) |
