I'd echo the recommendation for a Pi.
I ran LMS on my ReadyNAS NV+ v2. It worked, but was never really responsive enough. The day I moved to a Pi 4, running piCorePlayer, was transformative. The interface was so much faster - almost immediate. And library scans were so quick, they're almost inconsequential. I completed my upgrade by adding a 512GB USB flash drive to the Pi, to move the library local. The end result? Awesome, reliable performance, and all for under GBP 100. Money incredibly well spent. Server: piCorePlayer 8.0.0 on Pi 4B 2GB running LMS 8.1.1, with library on local 512GB USB drive Listening on: 2 x Squeezebox Radios 8.0.1 , and direct from the Pi using a Beringer UCA202 USB audio interface ------------------------------------------------------------------------ AlecSp's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42763 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115453 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
