Hello @Mark_Housel,

Thank you for the details.

To help understand why the track count dropped, could you please confirm the following:

  1. Is your Internal Storage on the Nucleus currently accessible over the network (for example, can you see and browse it from another computer)?
  2. In Roon, under Settings → Storage, does the Internal Storage still appear as connected and enabled?
  3. Screenshot of the Nucleus Web UI.

If the internal storage becomes temporarily unavailable or disconnected, Roon will hide the tracks from that location, which can result in a sudden drop in the total track count.

Once you confirm this, we can advise further.

Hello @Mark_Housel,

Thank you for the update.

Based on your description and the fact that the internal drive is not visible in our diagnostic report, this may indicate a hardware failure of the externall SATA drive.

We recommend removing the drive and connecting it to a different computer, then checking its health using any available HDD/SSD diagnostic or SMART testing software to confirm whether the drive is still detected and functioning correctly.

Please let us know the results once you’ve had a chance to test it.

not capable of doing that on my own. Thanks

Hey @Mark_Housel,

No problem - the best next step here is to get in touch with our RMA department directly, as they’re in charge of all hardware-related Nucleus issues. To do so, open the Typeform link below and select ‘Other’ followed by 'This issue is related to a physical component".

They’ll help get you sorted out moving forward. Thanks! :+1:

I unplugged my Nucleus both from the connection on the back of the Nucleus and the power strip for 30 minutes. I also opened the Nucleus and made sure all the SATA connevtions were tight. When I plugged both connections back in the Internal Storage reappeared. So problem solved for now.

My Nucleus thread was as follows: IP Address>Data>Storage>Internal Storage>Roon Imports>Mac_mini> (then all my music files stored on the server). I moved 'Internal Storage" (and the reminder of the thread following it) to right after “Storage”. I think the other thread which included the Mac folder was there because awhike ago pre-Nucleus purchase I used my Mac as my roon server. I think making the thread simpler also helped.

Good day @Mark_Housel !

Thanks for confirming!

In this case we’re happy to hear that your problem is solved.

Have a nice day!

Regards.
