I purchased the 4GB version, but I don't know how much better/quicker it is over the 2GB version. Something to take into account is the new Pi4's run hot, if you intend to put it in a case, it would benefit from some sort of cooling. A Pi3B+ is actually quite good enough with a medium sized library, (say 50K tracks), well tried and tested, more choice of cases etc.. No USB3 though. Yes, you can rip on your PC, and transfer the music files to the HDD/SSD attached to the Pi using Windows Explorer or similar. You need to install and configure SAMBA on the Pi, dead simple, everything is done in a web browser on your PC. Always plenty of help here. *Server - LMS 7.9.2 *Pi4B/pCP 6.0.0 18K library, playlists & LMS cache on SSD (ntfs) *Study -* Pi3B+/pCP 5.0.0/pi screen/HiFiBerry DAC+/jivelite, *Lounge* - Pi2/pCP 5.0.0 > HiFiBerry DIGI+ > AudioEngine DAC1 > AVI DM5 *Dining Room* - Squeezebox Boom *Garage* - Pi3B/Pi screen/HiFiBerry DAC+/pCP 5.0.0 > Edifier R980T *Spares* - 2xTouch, 1xSB3, 1xRadio, 6xRPi ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kidstypike's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10436 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110796 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
