Re: Are WAV files compressible data?

I know I am a bit of a computer numpty but I had gained the impression that SSDrives were at their most useful as system drives, giving faster boot times?

Music files were best stored on a second physical drive and a modern SATA drive was fast enough for this purpose? If I am right then I cannot see any merit in compressing .wav files at all (unless you are 24bits at 192kHz nutter!). I know we have come through a price blip but conventional drive prices are again quite low. Indeed a gander at Maplin shows a 1.5TB usb 3.0 drive at 95 quid!

Dave.
