Re: Mate in ??
Maybe Houdini 6 with Nalimov 6 is able to reach mate score with good accuracy. I have Nalimov 6 on external drive as backup. But i find it cumbersome to have to remove half of the selected syzygy 7 files on my 2 TB M.2 just to check for this one. I i'm planning to purchase another SSD solely for Nal...

Storing full 7-piece on SSD is not feasible, unless very big wallet. syzygy adjudication path: a good argument for a own path is that many is willing to go for 7-piece adjudication. 7-piece...
