As a rough and ready estimate of the time expected for moOde to update the libary from a remote NAS containing ca 5000 albums, I just did a test on a smaller scale here.
moOde 9.2.6 on an RPi 3A+ connected to my LAN via 5 GHz WiFi and located a long way from the LAN access point.
OMV 7.6 on an RPi 5B with SSD on a PCIe interface and connected to my LAN via Ethernet.
The SSD contains 8035 tracks by 754 artists, organized in 543 albums. There is cover art associated with most albums and embedded in many tracks. (Actually, I scanned the whole library which includes the Stereo test track included in moOde, so my counts are probably off by 1 or so.)
It took moOde/MPD about 6-1/2 minutes to update the library.
Since you have roughly ten times the number of albums one might reasonably expect it to take 10 * 6-1/2 minutes or something over an hour to complete at a minimum. I don't know how much longer to expect with an HD and USB 2.0 interface.
You can track the progress of the update from the terminal of your moOde player with the command
Here, for example, is what I see in the setup I cited above
and it continues ad nauseum until the update is complete.
You can check its statistics with an mpc command from the terminal. Continuing with my example:
You can see what moOde was doing during the update by looking at /var/log/moode.log
For example, here's what I see for the above library update operation
