I'm awaiting Roon's Nucleus boxes as these might be better suited to keeping in the same room with the rest of the system (hopefully quieter than an i7 NUC) and maybe offering a higher quality power supply and other sonically better bits. I too have been using a MacMini and only occasionally experience either dropouts or stoppage of play with my Roon library (using a QNAP NAS). Everything is wired to CISCO smart switch including the NAS, MacMini, and dCS Network Bridge.
