Unlike most media players today that suffer from the same problems that plague the PC--crashed hard drives, complicated setup, expensive operating systems, corruptible moving parts, confusing operation and myriad security issues--devices built on Unicoi's IP Media Reference Design offer worry-free operation. It has no moving parts. Instead of a corruptible hard drive, the reference design uses Flash memory and supports physical storage solutions such as USB mass storage, SD/MMC and compact flash. Maintenance-free operation; without the worries that come with multiple, moving parts.
