Taiko Audio Extreme Router

[John T]

I could setup a Ubuntu machine and do the conversion there, with a version that recognises both the formatted disks but, it’s another conversion, where we always loose something. Silly me, it’s an obsession.
I have in the Taiko Router network, a windows home server, assembled in a Pink Faun ancient streamer, great PSU BTW, not exactly a NAS, but that would be the longest path. From the Router it will be the shortest path. Just a little bit OCD…, but I’m getting better.

Could the NAS input/recommendation from Taiko be part of why they suggested it? Using a NAS eliminates what you have explained/shared...

John, yes my home server will be my NAS. Just a little bit more complex/complete OS, it’s a windows 10 home edition, and I will compare the SQ of the files stored there, with the the files stored in the Olympus.
But the thing here is, for me only, luckily nobody more has this paranoia , , find the shortest path to load the internal Olympus disk storage from my USB disk backup. Please, load yours from another PC in the network and you’ll be fine , really OK.

Once I decided that I was going to use a NAS with the Olympus I bought one, filled it with the files on the internal storage of the Extreme, and started using it with the Extreme with Roon.

Armando I now have a clearer picture and understanding of what you want to accomplish. OCD is another word for Thorough!

Once you loaded the NAS and started listening, any SQ difference/improvement over file storage in the Extreme? Or the same SQ?
