I was going to using Link aggregation on my NAS until I found out it makes no difference for single client performance. I needed it on my hyper-v machine as my music is stored on iscsi luns on the nas. I get full gb speed when copy to my music shares on the virtual machine this way. Did the NAS as I often copy bluray rips direct to it and got tired of that affecting my movie/tv/music streaming. Did the imac just because i could.

I may have to explore this again. Assume you are using a switch as well, which one if I may ask? Farming and LUNS, quite a combination, call me impressed! RE: AIR 3 Beta for Mac - Dr Tone - 11-Jun-2016 Netgear Prosafe 108T I do believe. Cheap and reliable. RE: AIR 3 Beta for Mac - baddog - 11-Jun-2016 Thanks, appreciate the recommendation. I started with a very inexpensive DLINK, this will make a nice, yet inexpensive upgrade. RE: AIR 3 Beta for Mac - Rufus McDufus - 11-Jun-2016 I used to run port trunking/link aggregation on my Qnap NAS to the switch (I run a 24-port managed switch). I ran some tests a year or two ago though and found without it sounded a bit better with just a single network connection between NAS and switch. This is when I started to realise the network could have an effect on sound quality. I realise you probably didn't want to hear this, Dr Tone! It is only a single case though and your setup looks to be different. Who knows, maybe it sounds better in your case? RE: AIR 3 Beta for Mac - tategoi - 11-Jun-2016 @Dr Tone, may I ask what is running your Roon core? @baddog, with the Mac Mini is headless running RoonServer and AIR3, what do you use as control?

I use Roon running either on a Macbook, iPad Mini or my iPhone to control playback of music via Roon with the headless Mac Mini. If I misunderstood you question, I also have screen sharing enabled on the headless Mac Mini, so that I can make changes to it when required without having to attach a monitor or keyboard. RE: AIR 3 Beta for Mac - midi - 11-Jun-2016 AIR 3 Beta worked fine for many weeks. Yesterday I showed my friend my D120 and tried a demo with AIR 3 and high-res files. I started the demo and I had crackles after a few seconds...embarrassing |
