Hi,
I just received my nice new Nucleus One.
I have dragged and dropped lots of music to the harddrive, (I bought 4 TB one.)
The total size is just over 2Tb of music dragged. But if I look at roon it says,
Internal Music Storage
Format
OK
4000GB, Samsung SSD 870 93% of 3696 GB available.
Have I done something wrong?
I dragged from music files on PC into Roon Albums, and it all seemed to work.
Is there a way to know how much hard drive is used?
Sorry if sounds daft but, I cant understand.
I think I have nothing new on internal??? I want all my files on the internal. What have I done wrong?
Sure, just remember the following.
The Nucleus will be in Network/Data/Storage/InternalStorage.
Make sure you are in your Browser, click on Roon to access the Roon screen. Just remember you won’t be able to see your Roon Data that you added, unless you are in your Browser and Roon at the same time, then you can see InternalStorage.
I think maybe what I done wrong is tried to move entire folders to albums?
Would that be why?
EDIT.
I tried again, dragging from file explorer in windows to Albums in Roon. Seemed to be working then said complete at about 400 albums. It is still spinning saying adding, but stuck
Please help. I have been doing this for almost 24 hours. How do I get my files to the internal ssd?
Thankyou so much !!
I was dragging/drop from file explorer to Roon, My Albums.
That made a folder called the name of my computer “computer”, in Nucleus hard drive.
But using the path you gave it seems to work, and way better.
Hopefully this is solved
I was going to gice up and return it, but now I think I am happy.
Thanks again
If I were you, I would delete any folders that you have accidentally created in the wrong place to free up space on the m.2 SSD in your Nucleus One. That SSD is for the Roon OS and Roon Server software only…
Actually, that’s OK; dragging and dropping onto the Roon screen will work. I thought that you had manually used File Explorer to copy files to the Nucleus One displayed inside File Explorer.
Dragging , dropping into roon screen didnt work though. It took hours and created a folder called computer. Then it just stopped working. I even formatted the hard drive again , the second time doing individual albums instead of folder with lots of albums. It Stopped itself again !
The second method is perfect. Just make a shortcut on desktop and copy.
The second time if you click the spinning circle in my albums roon it showed it was still copying but said it was complete???
It hardly did anything.
If it should work it didnt for me.
What it did copy showed up in my Albums though, weird.
Fair enough.
But surely, given that when you buy a Nucleus and want an internal drive, you would expect a sizeable amount of files to transfer, and therefore recommended should be option 2>
I really am glad you told me that though, I was all ready to return it after only having it for 24 hours.
So thanks again Geoff and have a most excellent Christmas
Sorry someone else had to help you. I have the original Nucleus Rev A. I did not know that different models have different names in the file structure. Mine just says Nucleus, didn’t think Nucleusone was required, otherwise I would have done that.
Thanks to you to.
Any genuine help is appreciated
I have almost finished copying all the files now.
Still feel aggreived that the recommendation was to drag from explorer too my albums in roon.
