No. It’s not an hardware issue. It is present on two different internal sata Hdds and they work perfectly,
Interestingly, today I imported ALAC files and they were all immediately recognised and added to Roon as previously used to happen. No missing tracks, no server reboot needed. Same files ripped to FLAC and WAV to the same drive threw up the same issues and were only added after a server reboot. Definitely does not appear to be a hardware issue.
Cheers.

There should be something with the file format. Don’t know if it’s a global bug or only some configuration has it.
Will wait for next update, but the last one didn’t solve the problem.
I get this from time to time. Especially when adding a lot of files at once.
Recent example (last week). I have been adding albums of DSF files to the library. When they are 2ch (smaller files) Roon seems to add all the tracks. When the 6ch version (larger files) are added, it seems to pick up only the first few tracks.
to fix, I change the name of the enclosing folder on my hard drive. This seems to prompt Roon to rescan the tracks and they all get added. Annoying, but it works consistantly when I see an album hasn’t been added completely. (I literally just add a character to the folder name. Wait a few seconds, check Roon to see all the tracks are there. Then remove the extra character from the folder.)
Just noting that I have the exact same issue so watching this thread for updates. I have files on an NAS that’s watched by a core on a Windows PC. I am bumping up against the memory limits (Task Managers says roon is using 90% of available memory pretty consistently - with spikes to higher) so I wonder if it is connected to the core not being able to read / write to the database in a timely enough fashion?
Same observations for the last couple of months. As a rule, it happens when adding files of large size (24-96 and above or DSD).
Lately I try to add files one by one, it more or less saves the situation, although dropouts still occur.
It seems that Roon starts a full library scan when adding files (judging by my NUC’s fan whistles when doing so) and gets stuck.
My Roon server does it for every files (usually they are flacs), regardless of their size; 16-44, 24-96, and so on.
Sometimes it adds a few files, sometimes nothing.
A reboot is the only solution I found.
Hi All,
We’d like to try a test to see if a specific setting might help improve your situation. We can change this setting remotely for your account, but please note that it may cause some additional slowdown in Roon actions while we evaluate its effects.
If you’d like to proceed, simply let us know here on this thread, and we’ll flip the setting for your account. Afterward, please monitor your system’s performance and share any feedback or results you notice. This will help us determine if the change is beneficial for those experiencing this issue and guide our next steps. Thanks!

Hi Noris.
Happy for you to go ahead.
Yes please, go ahead.
Hi Noris, don’t know if you changed anything on my account, but I didn’t see any improvement.
It seems to work now. Will keep you posted.
Edit: I added three albums and it worked. After that it resumed the usual behaviour. Only one or a few tracks were added.
So sad.
The reason for the skipped files is always the same: I/O failure.
Hi @Luca_Alebardi / @Edward_Brightly ,
I have made the change for your accounts just now. Please try to restart/reboot your RoonServers twice and let us know if you see any improvement with regard to the I/O failures. Thank you!
