Apologies - I have been away, but @Antoine and others have provided great info/answers in my absence.
I have a NUC Server that runs ROON Server and has HQPlayer Embedded on it. This is stored on the NUC (not on a USB stick). No mess no fuss.
I then have a NUC Endpoint that can play HQPE or ROON (Bridge). I select which I want to listen to, insert the appropriate USB stick (say HQP Embedded), wait a couple minutes, pull the USB stick (when it stops blinking) then play music until I want to switch to the other option. At that point, I turn off the Endpoint, install the other USB stick (say ROON Bridge), turn it on and wait till it stops blinking, pull it, and play away. I tend to play one or the other for weeks (months) at a time before going back to the other.
My music comes thru ROON - either TIDAL or a NAS.
