1. When the music library is first loaded into the N100H internal HDD storage (or when new music is added), one has to connect the N100H plus a Mac to the same network and run AMM to enable the metadata and album art to be available on the Conductor app, right?
2. Once the scan has been done, assuming all music is stored in the internal drive, can the N100H be used as a standalone unit like the X100 series? Or, does a Mac running AMM have to be connected to the same network as the N100H in order to access the metadata and album art?
3. If it can be used as a standalone unit, shouldn't the N100H sound better (and be a better option) than the X100, if one has less than 2TB of music, in view of the LPS used in the N100H? Or does the X100 have other tricks up its proverbial sleeve?
Thanks.
AMM simply creates a database with info where your music files are found and with what metadata. Once this database is created you only haven to update it with AMM after you added new music on you NAS. You don't have to have a mac with AMM running all the time. AMM scans the sources you select, which can include shares on your NAS and a connected USB Drive. The internal drive can be scanned within the Conductor app.
