Yes, I have the UltraPak. Actually, in most all of my songs I add a soloist track. Only that 3 track song is without the soloist. A full windows startup on my machine from a dead off (not sleep or restart) is 12-13 seconds. I attribute this to the SSD not so much the processor.

Possible point about BIAB going to original file sources for a new style regens. My RT's are not on my NVMe M.2 but are on my secondary 7200 rpm mechanical. Have thought about getting a larger NVMe to put all RT's on, but as I mentioned, I think that I'm at the point of diminishing returns and I've probably pushed this rig as far as it can go.

Personally, I think that I've done as much with the hardware side of the equation as I can now. Any further improvements, at least in my humble opinion, would be of the software side of BIAB's code and implementation.

YMMV
