· None of the above quite fits
· None of these quite match
· Can I install an SDD drive into a Nucleus One? If yes which format?
· Ethernet network
Yes, 2.5" SATA
Ok thanks, I’ll try to migrate from my QNAP then
If that’s just because of the upcoming Roon version, using the official Docker image will be just fine and easy
Yes if the Docker image will be avail before the update and if it will be easy to install/migrate to it… let’s see
Will the SDD be able to host my music files then?
Yes, that’s its only purpose. (You can’t save Roon database backups there, you still have to do this on the NAS or elsewhere. And make sure you have a QNAP backup/sync job to back up your music files from the internal disk)
Super thanks, I’ll do a bit of study to understand whether Nucleus One or an Asus NUC will be the solution and wait for 20 April to come just in case the Docker will solve the issue
thanks
Hi Suedkiez, I have two backup locations , one on my NAS and one on the internal SSD inside my nucleus rev A. why do you say you can’t backup to the ssd? Or did you mean it is not a good idea?
If you set up a backup and choose the backup location, the internal SSD is not offered as a location in the first place. This is from my ROCK, which has an internal SSD:
It offers only external locations: the Realtek (which is an external USB disk that is attached to my ROCK), the QNAP NAS, and Dropbox.
The main reason is that the internal storage disk is used by Roon as one single location - it is not possible to configure individual folders to be watched (and others that are not watched) on the internal disk:
Therefore, if you were to put the backup there, Roon would try to index the backup itself. This would be very bad.
On an external disk, however, you CAN create one watched folder for music and a separate unwatched folder where you can store the backup without Roon indexing it. Therefore, you can store music and backup on the same external disk (as long as they are separate folders).
In addition, even if it were possible, it would not be a great idea to put a backup on the same disk and device that would be usually inaccessible when you need the backup most because the disk or device itself broke.
Okay, that makes sense. Although I have never experienced any problems with this setup, I have now deleted the setting that designates the internal SSD as a backup location. Should I also delete the backup file that is still there? (I really must learn how to make screenshots on this tablet…)
I wonder how you even managed to create that because, as you can see in my above screenshot, it is not even offered as a possible backup target location on Nucleus or ROCK. At least not now, maybe it was possible in the past (which would be a bug, I think).
I would.

I use Total Commander for most of my file operations and I assigned a drive letter to the internal storage folder on the SSD. Then, I guess, Roon could ‘see’ it and I was able to point to it in order to designate it as a backup location. I have now deleted the backup files as you advised and only kept the NAS as backup. Thanks!
I see, thanks for the explanation.
It looks like @Suedkiez answered most of your questions here.
If you have anything else you’d like to ask, please let us know.
If not, we can go ahead and mark the thread as solved, thanks!
Oh yes, solved it is!
