your 6GB must include your actual storage for the 120k tracks. the Roon database files are fairly small. There is a setting in Roon to tell it to work with Squeezeboxes, including squeezelite installs. In my use of roon, I'm using a separate cheap "roonready" endpoint made from a rasberry pi with the roon "RAAT" firmware installed. I still use LMS and squeezeboxes 99% of the time. But roon is a nice experience with how it displays and integrates information on one's collection. And it is mostly agnostic on what types of players it can stream to (squeezeboxes, sonos, roonRAAT, etc.) while doing separate room or synchronized, gapless, play almost any codec, etc. Warning: I don't think it will play CUE files or Windows Media Lossless. *Home:* VortexBox 4TB (2.4) > LMS 7.9.1 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* VBA 3TB (2.4) > LMS 7.9.1 > Touch > Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Office:* Win8(64) > LMS 7.9.1 > Squeezelite *Spares:* Transporter, Touch(3), Radio(3), Boom, SB3, CONTROLLER *Controllers:* iPhone6 & iPadAir2 (iPeng & Squeezepad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win10(64) laptop *Files:* ripping: dbpoweramp > FLAC; post-rip: mp3tag, PerfectTunes; Streaming: Spotify ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108402
