Steps to Upgrade Internal Storage Drive in Nucleus

Danny, I have completed my SSD swap, replacing the 2TB with a 4TB. Physically there were no issues swapping the drives - I had that done in about half an hour. There were a couple unexpected things I ran across in the subsequent process however:

  1. The step by step procedure I put together needs to be modified to include another “stop server software” step after formatting the drive because the server software automatically starts up after formatting the drive.

  2. Restoring the backup went ok (took a long time!) but after I was finally able to get into Roon again, I noticed a spinning activity icon in the upper right corner of the screen. I first checked Settings, Library, to make sure it wasn’t doing Background Audio Analysis (it wasn’t). I then clicked on the activity icon and got a message that said:

“Adding music to library: Complete. Nucleus Internal Storage - Scanning now…32899 Tracks Imported, 21191 Files Scanned”

I let it sit for 10 hours and absolutely nothing changed, so I restarted the server software. The activity icon appeared briefly, then went away. I checked Settings, Library, and found that the Nucleus was now doing Background Audio Analysis on 304 tracks. After it finished that task, everything seems to be back to normal. I did however find 13 tracks that needed to be deleted in Library Maintenance.

Any idea what happened to me with those various issues?
