Dear Jeanette, out of curiosity I created a RAM-disk sudo mount -t tmpfs -o size=10G tmpfs RAM and recorded to that one. As a result, I couldn't record 32 channel at 48kHz and a buffer of 128. At a buffer of 256 it ran without any xruns, however, in that case, storing on hard disk creates an XRun only once at a while. So I'm not sure, whether a SSD would improve much. at least you could make a test recording to a RAM disk. -> jackd: v0.125.0 (-R --timeout 4500 -d alsa -C multi_capture -P multi_playback -r 48000 -p 256 -z shaped) Note, I made my test simply using ardour5 and jackd.
