You are missing the point you do not need any onboard storage.
You use a NAS and point Roon to the NAS and import the files that way
A 4TB NAS is $400 to $800 which is way less then the 4TB SSD that Innuous uses for internal storrage.
There is 0 need to store locally as the NAS based store being pulled in via ethernet sounds just as good.
The new MK III Innuous will be impossible to beat, literally impossible for the money, only Aurender, Naim, and Lumin make their own motherboards, every other computer based server uses an off the shelf motherboard which may be modified but was not designed from the ground up for music.
Aurender doesn't do roon, Lumin is a Roon endpoint, but only a dedicated Roon server can do the full upconversion and upsampling which many of today's dac are emabracing for the best quality sound.
The new statment combines a crazy outboard power supply, femto clocks, custom motherboard, custom software, a custom digital output board.
The MK II SE beat a SGM server yet cost less then half, the MK III servers will set a reference point that most small music server companies will not be able to touch.
