Migrating files to Nucleus from NAS and database

[Christopher_Petersen]

Perused the knowledge base and manual, but did not see (or missed) details on migrating the music library from a NAS to the Nucleus (plan on adding internal SSD storage).

Any pointers or tips/pitfalls, etc? I plan to copy the music library over then let the Roon/Nucleus create a new database rather than re-use the existing database. good/bad idea?

I reckon you’ll likely have to recreate playlists if you made them. If you are using Qobuz or Tidal, playlists from either of them are not affected. They import correctly.

Depends on your database and what you value. Play counts, Roon tags/favorites/playlists, credit edits, etc. will all be gone
