By far and away, I use the MS750 more than the others. The main one can see the others easily, the various network players can see it, digitizing the music is easy enough, backups are easy enough, and there seems to be plenty of room. 800 CD's take up less than half of the 750gb.
I would suggest having a spare hard drive with the operating system on it and a spare CDRW. There is no reason to expect that these shouldn't last another 5 years. By then there will be something else out there. Remember, 80% of what we will be using in 10 years isn't even invented yet.
I have found that it is easy to get caught up in the upgrade fever and lose track of what this is all about, listening to and enjoying the music. So rather than worry about what may happen if the MS750 dies, enjoy the music. I will bet it can either be fixed or a good solution can be found when the time comes. Thanks, Larry
