Have roon installed ssd in nucleus. I have a usb hard drive full of music that i want to transfer to nucleus ssd. I plugged in the hdd via usb to nucleus. Thought it eould show up in roon software and i can simply drag and drop. Didnt happen. Btw, is my way of the proposed music transfer even possible in nucleus? If not, can i have a simple procedure to transfer music from usb hdd to nucleus. Am not too computer savvy. Thanks
One way would be to plug your HDD into a Windows computer and use Windows File Explorer to copy them over or drop and drag using your network connection.
The transfer has to be over the network, there is no option in Roon to transfer from an external storage drive to an internal one. When you do the transfer the PC and the Nucleus both need to be wired or it can very slow.
Additionally, I would suggest to access the Nucleus Web interface and turn off the RoonServer before starting the copy. Turn it back on when the copy is completed. Having RoonServer trying to ID all the new music while you are copying can cause issues.
