Melco Audiophile NAS

[maikeru]

Hello Simon,

I’m looking at either a Melco N1A or N1Z.

Questions:

1) your preference ssd vs hdd?
2) will my minimserver 2 settings seamlessly be migratable (even if by hand) from my current Synology nas setup? Minimstreamer too?
3) dsd 512: the N1A seems not to support this. But since I wish to use it as a NAS only (serving up files to a Lumin T2) this should be a non-issue? In the same way (?) a Synology nas etc may not support 512 either, but it serves up the files to the Lumin nonetheless (?). To wit, I do want minimstreamer on the Melco to transcode flac to wav24 etc but have the heavier lifting done on the lumin

Overall impressions between the two units ?
