RE: MicroRendu LPSs.

I'm not a "computer guy" either, and shared similar reservations prior to jumping in. It's actually much simpler than you might think to set up a QNAP NAS and connect to the microRendu appliance with a Windows tablet for control over the NAS and Roon. The headless NAS communicates with QNAP's QTS software downloaded to a Windows tablet. The QTS software has the look and feel of a simple GUI-based desktop. No need to understand anything about Unix for this. One of Roon's partners offers free downloadable software that sets up the Roon core on the NAS. Then Roon transparently discovers and configures the uR. All very straightforward.
I can't imagine higher performance and more music storage capacity at anywhere near the price point of this package.
