My Roon core and music files are on a four bay Synology 420+ (6Go RAM, all SSDs, one for the Roon, 3x4To for the music, no RAID, weekly external backup).
In terms of sound quality, is there any benefit to be had by replacing the Synology PS with a linear one? I had toyed with the idea of the frighteningly expensive QSource (for NAS, QNet and QPoint) but apparently it does not have the muscle for the job.
In terms of ergonomics is there any mileage to had from adding an M2 SSD for caching? I find Roon a little on the slow side these days (c5700 albums, control interface on my iMac, hard-wired ethernet network)
PS: the NAS, QNEt and backup HD use a separate radial to the one used for the hifi proper (both single socket radials taken directly from the main elec distribution board).
