  1. Recently (Saturday) I installed 4GB of ram and an 80GB Intel SSD in my Mac Mini. The advantages of having the SSD in the Mac Mini are numerous. Faster boot times, faster application launches and no noise. Normally the sound is not much different coming from the SSD or a 320 GB USB 2.5" WD Passport drive, except that when the buffer runs out you can hear a little "confusion" in the music for a second or two while the external drive is reloading the buffer. I'm not sure if that issue can be fixed by increasing the buffer size on the Mac or not. Overall I like the music server concept and the sound (I've had mine running for a day now) but I'm sure that I don't have all of the variables worked out. ______________________________________________________________ Mac Mini 2.0Ghz 80GB Intel SSD 4GB ram OS X 10.6.2 running Songbird -> M2Tech Hiface -> Cary CD-306 used as a DAC -> Pass Labs Aleph P -> Pass Labs x350.5 -> Apogee Divas ______________________________________________________________ Kevin Burke audiopath
