If a FLAC file is 60% the size of a WAV file, your storage device is doing 40% less work serving up FLACs than WAVs. It doesn't seem a stretch to assume that will have an effect on drive longevity. Storage may indeed by cheap, but breakdowns are still annoying. -- atrocity ------------------------------------------------------------------------ atrocity's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16009 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50609 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
