[QUOTE="Shonver, post: 826080, member: 34"] Progress so far: 1. Got 256GB SSD installed. Very happy chappy :thumbs: 2. Configured ADSL modem as simple switch. Disabled DHCP. Disabled Wireless. I actually skipped the DHCP step initially, which resulted in the SB not seeing the server or the mysqueezebox.com address. But all fine now. 3. Most Importantly(!): got to hear uncompressed audio files again, after a long, long time :groovy: I still need to configure my other modem as the primary local server, so that the network doesn't go down when the LTE fails. Apart from this, my further challenges are: (1) Clean up the library. There are duplicate albums and albums with no meta data (actually two different issues) (2) Expand my music library. First step is to get bigger storage (how large a drive(s) can the microserver support?). (3) Get bigger storage (how large a drive(s) can the microserver support?). Install an SSD in the microserver and free up all 4 bays for storage. Run a RAID setup to protect the music files. That's the plan. As always, advice is welcomed. [/QUOTE]
