NUC Recommendation for large library (300,000 tracks)

[Martin_Webster]

You are showing audio analysis settings … a one-off process. For day-to-day use, you only need a few cores.

Using all cores of an i7

The Nucleus (nor the + variation) does not have 8 cores. It uses a cooler variation that we’ve found to be more than effective for Roon, mostly because Roon does not make good use of more than 2 cores if you are a typical user, or 4 cores if you are doing advanced DSD/DSP in multiple zones simultaneously.
