Chris,

I may have missed this but why aren't you sending Roon (NAS) to an HQPlayer machine to do the heavy lifting (modulators, upsampling, converting, etc)?

Just curious. Can an adult live long enough to listen to 10 TB of music?

Just wait til he starts saving multichannel DSD folders!  Yikes.  25TB here we come.

+1 Chris!  As a poor analogy I sure hope my public library doesn’t throw out books that have been rarely borrowed. The good news is our libraries are housed not in brick and mortar but incredibly cheap storage. The need to throw out anything is seldom invoked. 
 

Kal, yes And as I joked earlier wait til we turn Chris into a multichannel guy. His 10TBs goes 25 in a hurry. 😀

???  I am running win10 on two different systems and both have QNAP NAS drives in them.  Roon always adds new content automatically.

Aren't we talking about Roon's inability to auto-scan/watch on QNAP vs on Windows?  Kal, it sounds like your Roon is Windows-based (as is mine).  Chris describes "watched folders" issue on QNAP-installed Roon, right?
