[SOLVED] How do I setup a NVME Hat to store music on RPI5?

[sevoflurane]

Thanks guys, I am using moOde 9.0.5 and booting from a SD card.

I’m a complete novice to this, but have moOde 9.0.5 running from the SD card of my RPi 5 and a 2TB Crucial NVMe SSD attached (I am using an Argon Neo 5 case which uses the PCie connection to attach the SSD).

You can run everything from the SSD, but if you update moOde you’ll probably lose the music on the SSD. I have used the NVMe mounting feature in 9.0.5 to format the SSD which creates a shared folder for the music, which I can copy across from my PC. MoOde still boots from the SD card.

So far, so good; I have spent a good few hours over this weekend listening to music, either directly using a USB DAC attached to the RPi or streaming to a WiiM Mini.
