Home Computer Audio Asylum

Music servers and other computer based digital audio technologies.

Never listened to no upsampling before (much) so ...

listening to it now would not tell me much,

I think the "power" aspect is important but it cannot explain everything.

When the disk drives are powered by their own supplies that argument seems tenuous to me, anyway. I can see the power argument being persuasive when it comes to power to the MB.

One would assume the more activity of the processor would, in turn, require more activity from the drive containing the OS and the software. The faster the drive can respond to requests it only makes sense this would greatly effect the function of the system. At least to my way of attempting to understand what goes on in the computer.

We have learned that speed is not important for the CPU or the memory but maybe where speed makes a decisive difference is with the drive containing the OS, the cMP/cPLAY software, or both?

It seems to me, going back to cics's idea of jitter, - this could be a source of a form of jitter if there is a lag in instructions required by the system?

Bye,
