At home, I currently have a decent setup with some M-Audio AV-40's (LONG internal debate between these and the A2's, but I finally settled for the cheaper solution). I've got them hooked in through a...

Yeah, I've been considering moving the cache folders back, as it really did make a large difference. The other challenge is the size. Too small, more overwrites and less drive life. Too big and my...

Mkay, so I have to admit that I see very little point to this. If it could do it in such a way that it didn't require "installation" then I could see some benefit in being able to access files from a...

Nope, no love for Mesh. At least no performance improvements that I can detect.
I truly don't get it. It spends 15+ minutes on boot "scanning files" and consuming up to 50% of my CPU. It really is...

Definitely a "why? because we can" type of product. I imagine you'll see about a 0% increase in picture quality for a 100,000% increase in weight and bulk. All for the low, low price of, well, one...
