It helps a lot.
The idea is exactly to use my laptop just to work and get something else just for music, improving the quality.
The price is always a factor.
Between NUC and dedicated music servers i´ll check among your suggestions and other in the market.
Another question: i´m not the kind of computer expert to do it myself, so do you know if there are in the market any NUC already in a fanless case dedicated to audio (Nucleus excluded, of course...)?
Thanks again.
Sorry, I have no idea about what's available in the way of different NUCs on the market.
There was one thing I forgot to mention and that's about adding music to your library. Some servers (mine included) have an internal CD drive and software for ripping discs to their internal storage. That may or may not be an advantage for you, otherwise you're going to have to rip any discs you want to rip using your laptop and then transfer the files over the network to your music computer/server.
