Hi,

There's nothing really that you can do to update the MC200 apart from cloning the disk to an SSD.
You could update the Sooloos software with the Meridian Device Manager, but it won't provide any more functionality, as development of the Sooloos platform ceased many years ago, and APIs to applications (such as Tidal / Qobuz) have been rewritten.

The O/S is Busybox Linux and is pretty much pared to the bone.

You can convert the MC200 to a Roon server, but then you lose the audio endpoint capacity as the drivers for the onboard sound card are embedded in the Sooloos build, and can't be extracted.
The same is true for the MC600 - that can be converted to become a Roon server, but you will then lose all six audio endpoints.

You can leave the MC200 alone (disable core and storage), then run a separate Roon server on a PC or NUC, and use the MC200 as a Roon audio endpoint.

If you just want to use the MC200 as a one-box solution, controlled by a tablet or PC, then leave it alone...

Cheers,

Steve
