Thank you both for taking the time to reply.

Yes, of course, if I can keep all my LMS configurations, settings,
plugins and their respective data too - that would be fantastic. The
ideal situation is for me to take the HDDs from my existing NAS, slot
them into the 'new' NAS, install LMS and for it to pick up from where I
left it on the older NAS.

However, the complicating factor here is that I'm moving from x86 to ARM
otherwise this probably wouldn't even be an issue. 

Does LMS separate all user settings and configurations from the main
program? If so, then uninstalling LMS should only result in uninstalling
the core LMS files? Install the ARM version of LMS on the new NAS and
🤞 it looks for those user settings and configurations in the
same locations and all should be goodÂ… or am I making some bad
assumptions?

I'm also confused about where LMS is run from, the memory of the NAS or
from the HDD?

If the former, then it won't need uninstalling as it stays on the old
x86 NAS, shove the HDDs into the new ARM NAS, install LMS and as long as
all my user files, settings and configs are in the same directories -on
the HDD-, then all should be well. If the latter, then I need to
uninstall the x86 version of LMS and backup all the necessary files
before installing the ARM version then putting my saved files where they
need to be.

Am I making sense or just completely making a simple situation more
complicated than it needs to be? 😁
