Thanks for additional replies.

Isn't it good practice for user settings, config files etc. to be stored
outside of the core program files? So, wouldn't uninstalling a program
leave those files untouched?

I have actually got new disks and that possibly is an option as a way to
go though may have its own complications. I'm migrating from a NAS with
an Intel x86 processor and 2x3TB HDDs to a NAS with an ARM processor
where I have 2x12TB HDDs ready to go. From what I understand, the best
way to go about this, is to move both 3TB HDDs from the old NAS to the
new NAS -then- replace one of the 3TB HDDs with one of the 12TB HDDs,
let the NAS RAID setup do it thing of syncing all the data from the 3TB
to the 12TB HDD then replace the -other- 3TB HDD and let that process
happen again. 

End result, all data should be on the new NAS in the larger capacity
HDDs.

However, the difference in processor architecture is a complicating
factor. If the new NAS was also Intel x86 then I probably wouldn't even
have to uninstall any apps, just hot swap the HDDs one-at-a-time and let
them sync. Anyway, although related, this could be going a bit off-topic
and I need to probably update my thread on the ReadyNAS support forums.

Re: running LMS on a Raspberry Pi, I haven't found any issues with
running it from the NAS. The other stuff on it or run from the NAS is
Plex and backups for computers in our household.
