RE: with the data going over the SATA cable to RAM

"This is a weak headed comment. To get the data into RAM, the cable is involved, so does a whole new bunch of circuit board traces and sockets when dat is released from it instead of from the hard disk."

Huh?

The SATA cable is involved only when the data is loaded into RAM. That could have happened the night before, but usually it as a minute or two before I start playing the music.

As to those motherboard traces, these involve the processor and I/O controller connections to the DRAM modules plugged into the motherboard. These traces are used for nearly all operations in the computer.
