Didn't he also play organ on Red Clay, one cut?

Yep!

We have our ways.

Thanks. Our current PC was built for us by our daughter's then boyfriend, who was a real PC virtuoso. Great value and it has functioned flawlessly since Day 1. He was adamant about the SSD boot/program files drive and just as adamant against using it as a data drive for precisely the reasons you mention. But I see people on here using them for buttload of data, so I was wondering if those days were over.

I saw a breakdown of what his estimated tax liabilities will be pre-shelters and such. If the numbers were reliable, it's a lot!!!

So, solid state drives have advanced to the point where they are truly stable for large amounts of data? It's been 5+ years since that was a question for me. That was when "conventional wisdom" was that they were great for a boot drive and program files but not so much for data. They have since grown up?

It's one thing to buy that kind of stuff here and there. We all are weak and indulge. It's another thing to enthusiastically advocate for it. Beware of false profits!

I'm at the point to where the only music I want to deal in terms of "curation" (a yucky word at this point, work, not fun) is music I've yet to hear. Otherwise, the ongoing pursuit of new places to put old things is starting to become...repugnant, actually. Neither time nor energy are infinite resources. Nor is money, for that matter. So if I want to look for a new place, it will be for new things.

I see that!

Stream what you already have. Store what you don't. Let somebody else worry about always buying new hardware. There's always more that you don't know than there is that you do.

Let's think outside the box and whatever platform choice you make, use it for only records you've never heard before.

You can imitate the funk, but you can't fake it!

This.
