Have you tried the latest 7.8 or 7.9 with it's highets memory settings on a suficiently good platform ? still to slow ?
If disc IO is a problem run internal drives SATA with the OS on a separate drive perhaps an SSD for the OS and LMS and regular drives for the music . Another path would be to run several instances of LMS perhaps as virtual machines pointing at different discs . Or even simpler do you have more computers in the house ? run LMS there to . >From a player or controll device you can select music source . The thing i have not explored about running several LMS on the same machine is how to keep preferences separate and creating several network interfaces ? using virtualisation solves one of the problems i think . But i'm not the expert on these things but i do know that some forum members runs several LMS on the same PC . With souch a humungus collection you deserve a real server for with built in drives IMO . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
