Wow, dude. You just threw me for a loop. You're so knowledgeable with gear. I was thinking you listened to a lot of digital music plus CDs
You've got such an insane collection I don't know if you could even store it all on one device. Ferday?
So, I'm keeping my main computer clean and just have the stuff I'm listening on my Ipod saved on a lap top. But, I've got all of my music (and that's just a little over 13,000-piddly little collection
-on a NAS that I stream through Sonos. Or, sometimes listen to my music on my Laptop with HPs.
I've been looking to back up my Synology NAS. Here's something I found on Amazon for $88-it's two TB, but I might be able to get away with 1TB for under $60-and I'd like to be able to store some hi res stuff in the future.

I used to think why bother since I've got everything as a CD, but the thought of re ripping everything would suck. I spent most of a summer doing that. Freaking chore that was.
Also, I know a lot of people say just go digital all the way. But here's something that happened last night. I decide to move my Sonos Connect which basically functions as a music server for my digital music files. I remove the digital cable to move the connect to make a little more room for cables and I see something is wrong with the coax output. It's sunken into the port hole-broken. So, of course, I'm going to send it to Sonos to look at it. In the meantime, I've got my CDs to listen to. If I'd tossed all my CDs I'd be out of business and then really would be streaming everything
. End of story-I like my dinosaur CD's.
