second internal drive for mac mini

[harry26]

iam in the process of getting a compact computer for my living room and considering 2012 mac mini with SSD which will connect to ayre ab-9 DAC.

i have heard that most thunderbolt drives are noisy and thunderbolt plus ssd is too expensive.can't use usb as i want to keep it for the DAC only.

 

OWC offers option to add a second internal drive to mac mini.iam thinking if i add a second ssd (980gb) instead of regular drive and hence the noise will be compartively less.

 

i wanted to know whether is this a great compromise with respect to sound quality or is it still fine to go ahead with this strategy.

 

please share your opinions on keeping the storage drive inside mac mini.
