> [@USB input for music playback on the SA30 is only available by using theWebClient, ref#67](https://arcam.discourse.group/t/usb-input-for-music-playback-on-the-sa30-is-only-available-by-using-thewebclient-ref-67/61/9): > > I was thinking purchasing the ARCAM CDS 50. How is the addressing of a USB device managed from there ?. Would the browsing through Musiclife work in that case ? I got some more information on this, see below: > On the CDS50, USB drives can be browsed via the front panel only. Further to this, the CDS50 does not have a web client to browse lists. USB drives are not available in MusicLife. > Broadly speaking, browsing from USB devices has always been a ‘niche’ feature for our markets. It is far more common that customers would be expecting to use NAS drives running UPnP servers, or the streaming services provided within MusicLife. ---
