I'm in much the same boat as you, but I did get this far, so maybe I can
help?  

When you plug in the USB drive, it won't give you any visual indication
that it's attached.  If you want to find it, go into the LMS settings
for scanning your music.  When you choose your library, drill down to
the "media" folder, and it should be found under one of the USB drives
listed in there. As a default, you may be able to select the "media"
folder as you directory of choice, and perhaps LMS will scan downhill
from there.  I don't know for sure, as I was able to find my drive and
music directory and point the scanner directly to it.
