At this moment people report that there's no sound quality reduction when a small Intel Optane drive (with 3D X-Point memory) is used like in Dan's server. SSD's do seem to hurt SQ.
Not all NUC's can use these M.2 Optane modules BTW, the NUC7DN'xx' machines can but the Pentium and Celeron version can't.
I myself haven't experimented yet with an Optane or SSD drive inside the NUC and still use the USB thumb drive.
