not using it so that pCP can have
I have used USB HDD for my LMS music for 15 years. In that time 2 drives
have failed so I just plug in the backup USB drive and buy a new one.

I have found unpowered backup drives don't fail (none yet). I don't
think a NAS is any safer than that. All powered drives will fail
eventually.

I dont subscribe at all to the idea that your music library should be
on any kind of USB drive. In my experience running a pCP LMS with files
on a quality NAS is just as quick and massively safer and robust.
The idea that an SSD in a USB enclosure is somehow the way to go is a
waste of an SSD in
Thanks for the info gordonb3.
Most of my USB drives are far older than 2 years, but all but one are
backup drives so they are not powered up very often.
The LMS USB drive only has only the music files on it, nothing is

OK, I reformatted the SD card in Windows, now it appears usable.
On the LMS page I mounted it as crabtree.
On the main page it appears in the list of available save locations.

I did a clean install of 8 on a Pi3 with HiFiBerry DAC. Iwas previously

Not sure, but you can save the backup *image* to an attached USB
thumbstick, it needs burning to an SD card to be able to use it.

Just a detail but I understood that starting with kernel 5.x, linux
