Gook Luck! Please keep us informed about your progress and experience after you've received the Nucleus and have had a chance to configure and us it. I'm curious to know how it works out for you....
Ordered a Roon Nucleus Plus
I've been using a robust Windows10 Pro Dell laptop (with an external USB connected hard drive) for streaming and storing my CD quality and abover AIFF files. I have the Tidal Windows app and the Roon core running on this machine. As more and more updates are pushed out to that machine, it's streaming performance has suffered, mainly some process I can't identify seems to temporarily pause it's connectivity to the network. Since that machine runs Windows, which has all sorts of processes running not related to music delivery, I decided to "take the plunge" and yesterday ordered a Roon Nucleus Plus.
I'll typically have the external hard drive connected to the Nucleus, but when I purchase new music will connect it to the Dell to store the files on the drive, and back the files up to the cloud.
I've had really good luck running Roon, the program seems really stable, and the sound quality is excellent. Wish me luck making the transition!
