Dela (Formerly Melco) E100 USB Hard Disk Drive

Through the development of the Music Library series, Dela has accumulated expertise in storage installation methods, storage selection methods, and the development of driving boards. Over more than 10 years of effort, this technology has received high praise both domestically and internationally through high-end models such as the Music Library ‘N1’.

Meanwhile, with the advent of network players and Roon servers, there are increasing ways to use music libraries that do not necessarily require multifunctional capabilities. The ‘E100’ is a simple solution aimed at those who prefer these relatively new usage methods, extracting only the renowned DELA storage technology and commercializing it as a USB-connected hard disk drive.
