My system is:
FLAC files on NAS, ethernet to Laptop running J River Media Centre, output via UB to External DAC, RCA to Amp.
Laptop has died. I was just going to go on eBay and get another cheap 2nd hand laptop with SSD hard drive.
Is there any benefit to looking at a micro PC instead?
Mainly reliability - laptops have poorer heat management IME so fail more frequently. Also with a micro pc you can just replace the motherboard and it’ll gorilla tape to the back of your tv. OTOH you’ll need a tv :)
