Hmmm.... After the Harddisk from my good old Pentuim 1.8 Gh/z powered lms Server broke i couldnt get (in Time) a 1TB WD Black in 2.5" the shop only had only 3.5" in stock - so i decided to opt for a "new" (my former PC with an 3.40GHz i7) with an ssd for the OS and a 3.5" Disk for the Data to act as my new LMS Server. My Library and the setup is exactly the same - the former 1.8 GHz Server scanned the 78000 Tracks in 2.5 Hours - the I7 only needs 37 mins. Since the former PC had 2 GB and the new 4 GB but never uses more than 2 GB - i am not sure if the more Ram also makes a difference or it all about the Processor that speeds the scan up. The SSD (for the OS and the LMS DB) for sure (already tested that) was a huge speedup. You have to trial this out yourself. If you adding something to nothing the next id for the album is the next aviable dito with genre or artist. If you add something to something -> each album; artist;genre had to be checked in the DB if its already used. But that shouldnt count too long. Do you run LMS on your NAS or do you use your LMS on your PC and the Library is on the NAS? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DJanGo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1516 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107954 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
