First of all, jitter is not caused by spinning discs, that is nonsense.
Secondly, I prefer USB drives that have their own power supply. You are not subject to the noisy environment that is prevalent in most PCs. Also, an outboard power supply is preferable to drawing current from the USB ports.
Finally, try not to get too caught up in the audio nervosa that seems to plague many folks on this forum. If it sounds good to you sit back and enjoy it, don't worry what others think...
