[QUOTE="wmprice1240, post: 892012, member: 99551"] This is the correct behavior. From Apple's support site: When I used to run my iTunes library on my AEBS external drives I would hit this issue all the time because most of my drives had a little bit of lag when spinning up. iTunes would immediately drop to my local HD. To get around this I now use an external drive connected to my Mac Mini via Firewire and share/stream music from this library to the other machines on my network.
