I've ripped over 1200 discs with my ASUS drive, I would probably be on my 3rd slim drive right now.
Shell out the money for a full size disc drive. If you plan on ripping a lot of discs then DO NOT get a slim drive. Thanks for any advice, I really appreciate it!Ī similar question was asked here about a week ago, I'm going to copy/paste some of my responses here. This is a huge project that could take several years to finish, so I want to ensure I'm doing everything correctly and efficiently from day one. What kind of lossless audio file format should I use? I'll mainly be listening to music with headphones while running. Should I consider using Apple Music to manage my files, or is there a better option? What kind of external hard drive should I buy for storage? How much storage do I need for 5,000 CDs (or maybe up to 7,500 to ensure I'm future-proofed for a long time)? Should I buy an Apple USB SuperDrive to rip CDs, or is there a better Mac OS X-compatible option on the market these days? Going forward, I would like to start ripping CDs again -mainly to listen to my CD collection while I'm running - but I'm unsure where to start since I've heard that Apple no longer supports iTunes or sells iPod devices.
SInce then, I have relied more on streaming services than physical CDs. I stopped in 2018 when I moved from Texas to Colorado and put all my CDs into storage boxes. My personal collection is around 5,000 discs right now.īack in 2017 and earlier, I used to rip my CDs to iTunes and listen to music while running.
