Re: Is that it on the Mac mini for now?

I'm around but church music deadlines and medical issues* have made it so that I don't come around as often as I'd like.
Anyone remember the BTD stalling issue that MOTU was never able to reproduce? Well, I can duplicate it on projects stored onto external TB drives but not on those same projects running on my System drive. Always heard back, 'It's not that.' Ok, fine but I disagree and can duplicate my results. It may be a timing error—my system is extremely fast and for raw speed outperforms the M1 anything for now.
VIs except SampleTank, AppleMusic/iTunes and archives are run externally but swapping projects in/out of my 4TB System drive takes time. SampleTank runs ok on external but I often have to rebuild the index and that's faster if the libraries are on my System. 8TB onboard clears that bottleneck especially as I'm doing more video and AV.
*I'm ok enough (I think) but recent situations have made being me extremely inconvenient especially when it comes to sitting in a chair. I am improving, however. More tests tomorrow for new stuff.
Yes and no.Wouldn’t external storage be fast enough for audio needs?
