Edit Reason: fix typo: 1GB -> 1TB

I can't help but feel that you're making this too hard for yourself, but without more information I don't know what to suggest.
For most of us, simply flashing the moOde image to a good quality uSD card (class 10 works well) with appropriate credentials is sufficient to get a reliable, good performing system on anything from an RPi Zero to an RPi 4B (even an RPi CM4 in my case). I've also done it with a USB memory stick (or even a uSD card inserted into a USB carrier).
The image file already has two partitions baked into it. The first partition is small (about 1/4 GB) and contains the boot file system; the second (about 3.5GB) contains the root file system. When the resulting moOde system is booted the first time, the second partition and the root file system it contains are expanded to fill any remaining space on whatever medium it was flashed to.
Most of my music collection is on a NAS accessible to all my players. I do have one player on an RPi4B with a 1TB NVMe SSD attached via a USB3.0 adapter. It's automatically detected by moOdeOS and its contents are added to the Library database either manually or automatically if I've so set the Library options.
