Caching space on SSD for Tidal playback

Hi,
I have RS150 for almost week, so far very satisfied. Sound is excellent. Only drawback I see is that buffer/cache playing Tidal is really small just 15-20 seconds. Skipping to some part of the song stops the music and it takes 2-3 seconds. Previously I was using Audirvana on mac mini and it buffered whole song into RAM so skipping to middle of the song was instant. I’ve also tested Aurender which has 480GB ssd cache drive and is capable to cache thousands of songs. This allows also changing songs on Tidal without any delay. I want to install 4TB SSD drive, please is there possibility to reserve some capacity for streaming cache? If not, are you planning such feature?
It would definitely improve experience.
Thank you

Hello,

If storage(SSD, HDD, USB) is connected to your RS150, you can use cache for TIDAL.
ROSE device > TIDAL > My Collection > Setting > Enable Cache > Set storage for cache

Hello,
It works great.
Thank you

Could you please explain what is [Caching space on SSD]. Thanks

You can allocate space on your harddrive (I did 500GB) and Tidal will store there all songs which I’m listening to. So next time I will play these songs, Tidal will not stream them from internet but from harddrive.
