I'm running WinCab on an old Dell laptop stuck above the drop ceiling in my basement, and it's hooked to a touchscreen monitor mounted on the wall. Anyway, I picked up a 400 GB external USB drive that I want to load full of music for WinCab. I could put the USB drive with the laptop above the drop ceiling, but I'd rather not unless I really have to. I have a wireless network in my house, and I was wondering if I could hook the USB drive up to my "main" computer, and then point WinCab (on the laptop) to it through the wireless network. I guess that it would physically work, but I was wondering if I would have issues with Wincab "skipping" or "freezing" during songplay due to the wireless network connection? Anyone accessing their WinCab music files via wireless? If so please let me know how it works for you!
Thanks in advance for any input!
