My 2009 17" mbp is finally dead, after 13 years of 24/7 use, a ram upgrade, new battery and ssd it's finally died.
I couldn't have be happier with its longevity, cost me about £10 a month overall.
But now I need to replace it. I have 600tb of music files in ALAC, maybe 50tb of genuine HD stuff from 2l.no and the like.
I'm happy with iTunes/audivana, I don't stream from the Web, no spotify or amything else. I'd rather not use some NAS but similarly don't want pay 1tb of apple storage in an m1 air pro. I just need clean usb out and ability to control via phone app.
Any suggestions? Mini and usb dock/stand with internal ssd?
