Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] USB thumbdrive
@dmozell You could, if you wish, and at your own risk, of cousre, run a fsck or chkdisk on the usb stick. Do a little research first :) Turning the rpi of in the proper manner may help reduce the chance of corruption but is always a good idea imo :) ronnie Man in a van's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43627 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116918 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] USB thumbdrive
I'm not sure if this is helpful, but I have used usb flashdrives, both a 128 and 256 GB, on a pi with picoreplayer for years and never had a problem. I normally leave it on full time, but I do experience a lot of power outages. The primary recommendation is to use a well established brand, my preference is a Sandisk or Samsung, but there are other good choices. If your music files will fit on a USB flash drive, then I think it is a good solution for media storage, inexpensive, compact and no cables.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] USB thumbdrive
I have a raspberry 4b running picore lms. I've got a music library on a 128 thumbdrive in one of the raspberry usb ports. It's worked almost perfectly for a few years until the library stopped being recognized. I just recreated the library on a fresh 128 thumbdrive. I have a few questions about this. 1) Would it be better to use a different type of drive? 2) Could the problem have been caused by turning the raspberry off and on? Strangely, the bad drive was still readable by a pc. Thanks. dmozell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=72019 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116918 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
