Actually I set up LMS so everything runs from a single microSD including
the library; wouldn't recommend it for a library that changes often and
I always have at least three library backups, including one on a local
USB SSD connected to my daily use PC and an archive in the cloud.

Right now I have three LMS online, one running 7.92, one running 7.94
with library on USB SSD, and the new one running 8.0.1.  Picked up a
Samsung EVO Select 256GB microSDXC for $25 on Black Friday for the new
server :)

I'm getting a case for the rPi 4 running 8.0.1 this weekend and will
physically replace the 7.92 LMS direct attached to my firewall/gateway. 
I'll pull out the microSD from the 7.92 and keep that as an archive for
now and turn the rPi 3 into a piCorePlayer, replacing an rPi4 currently
running Squeezelite

Haven't patched the Radios yet, that's on my to do for this evening and
then I can cut over completely to the 8.0.1 LMS.  So far it seems to be
running great - one small glitch in that I changed to a static IP after
I installed LMS and the plug-ins - the Spotty plug-in v4.4.4 kept a
reference to the previous dynamic IP.  Just needed to unclick/remove the
plug in and then add it back in and all is well.

When I get the library tagged properly will build a PiCorePlayer LMS
server and check it out.
