Dedicated Linear Power Supply for the SSD just incredible!

I have now provided my custom C.A.P.S. server internal SSD with a dedicated 5v power supply from the second output of the JS-2 Linear Power Supply. In the first image shows DC-1 Output is set for 5v feeding the internal SSD and the DC-2 Output is set to 12v feeding the motherboard. The 2nd image shows the rear of the custom C.A.P.S. server with the 12v connection at the top and the 5v connection at the bottom.

From my critical listening sessions I have to say independently powering the SSD with the JS-2 LPS is another huge step up for SQ. The SQ is just thru the roof as the noise floor has been totally eliminated. The clarity of the music is just jaw dropping soothing. My listening experience has proved to be even more emotionally engaging. This SSD power enhancement had a very positive effect on the full range of the audio spectrum making it so organic and very fluid like without sacrificing the minute details that we all appreciate and desire. I just love the UpTone JS-2 Linear Power Supply for what it does for my music!

I feel it's better to have the linear power supply separate from the streamer/server.

Even if true, I would gladly sacrifice a minuscule bit of performance (probably within the margin of error of my hearing) for reduced complexity and kludginess of my system.... I currently own 2 servers (one 2 channel and one MCH) and one external battery. I am hoping to consolidate to a single box...

My system is just a dedicated 2 channel not too complex. :)
