pi 3a+ strong enough?

I don't think it's a network problem.  The signal strength is better than -45 dBm at the location and I have other network devices that run fine there including a pi 4 and pi5 running v 9.13.  

This isn't a matter of life and death.  It's a hobbyist fooling around.  I have more pis than I need.  I'm retired and need to do something computer related.  I was interested in using this one mainly as an alarm, using the new doesn't have to be on the play list feature.  I can't rule out the pi being less than perfect because I had it in my living room system connected to my AVR via HDMI.  It sat on top of the AVR for several months. probably a warmer than optimum location.  OTOH, it runs PiCoreplayer reliably.  I've just loaded the 32 bit version of v. 8.3.9 and I'm currently waiting to see how long that lasts.

I have 2x Pi 3A+ with V9.13 playing the whole day flac audio files in the highest quality from a Synology NAS. No freezing or dropouts here.

I always use Sandisk SD cards and an official power supply.


Kind regards,

Frank
