I appreciate the input. Since I posted my question I've spoken to several dealers and Transporter owners. The setup I liked best was using a NetGear Ready NAS network external hard drive. It's small and silent and costs $399 with 500GB and another $99 gets you another 500GB for the extra tray inside. With that config you get RAID for duplicate file copies. One really cool thing about this product is that it connects wirelessly to your home network so you can put it anywhere, and you don't have to have any computers turned on to get full operation from it, since the Squeezebox software resides on the Transporter. The setup I saw had Martin Logan powered speakers connected to the Transporter...that was the ENTIRE music system and it sounded as good as almost anything I've ever heard...and I've spent tons on audio gear over the past 20 years. If anyone has had any experience with the Netgear Ready NAS, good or bad, I'd appreciate hearing from you before I finalize my system design. Again, thank you all!
