I got an Audigy Xifi gamer in my computer that I can hear interference from the hard drive, so I tried this instead

What's worse is I could hear "interference" when my hard drive was getting heavy usage

Pull what I need from It and save the disc in case of a hard drive crash

I recorded some old minidisc recordings to my hard drive (remember minidiscs?), and the results using Adobe Audition were excellent

Our source music is LAME encoded MP3 files, 320 kilobits, 44.1 resolution, played from an external solid state drive and using iTunes for automation.

It is great for copying analogue media to your hard drive and for hooking up powered analogue speakers
