Roon - the next step?

A product that will store my music and act as  a Roon Core.
After a couple of days doing internet searches it appears that there are a not a lot of new options.
Innuos and Roon Nucleus appear to be the main options and Innuos appears the more complete option as it has the HD capacity already installed.
My Melco has been unplugged for 7 months basically so I think it is time to replace it. It will become Roon ready in the near future apparently but only as an endpoint and I am keen to get the lap top out of the chain as was originally intended.

Do you need a turnkey solution Womaz?
Whats the reason for wanting the laptop out of the chain? Is it perceived SQ reduction or lack of convenience?

I suggest a computer as a core server, and something like an Allo digiOne.   I bought a used Mac mini. I run it headless on a shelf and it’s minimal fuss and works fine. You can connect over ethernet with Roons air if you don’t need grouping.

I have always wanted the lap top out of the equation as I just want my Hi-Fi to be operational without it
Also in my system USB gives a better result sound quality wise than Ethernet . I could keep the Melco as it will act as a roon endpoint in the near future apparently , but this would still need the lap top as the roon server. It’s a consideration I guess as this would give me the usb connection I would like. Idea.ly I want a one box solution attached to my 200 via usb
