FLAC or Windows Lossless for music archive?


.
I have a SqueezeBox.... and I've just purchased an external drive to store my cd's on. Are there any pros or cons whether or not to use Windows Lossless or FLAC? Is one sonically superior over the other?

..thanks.....mitch

Can someone update me or give me a few links? I'm familiar with the squeezebox, but never looked deeply into it due to misconceptions, no dire need to upgrade, among other things.
This thread (thanks all!) resparked an interest. I assume a squeezebox be run from a external hard drive (usb2.0? SATA?) to a DAC (how much does the DAC, good quality DAC help?). Any recommendations or pointing me where to go would be great!

I have a terrible tendency of scratching / loaning forgetful friends my CDs and this would be great!
