I'm running 7.9xx on Odroid hardware but I'm having to reboot it much

I don't have performance issues so would prefer to keep the Odroid

Still no joy I'm afraid
I can see it in Explorer but when I try to access it, I get:
Windows cannot access \\PI3MUSIC\Pi3Music
Diagnostics say maybe the name is misspelled.
I've plugged the USB drive directly into the PC & it's called Seagate
4Tb but Samba won't allow that name as it has a space

maybe I can offer an alternative approach to using the ip address in
explorer. I have always followed the instructions here to mount the
drive, configure samba, and create a windows network location (note the
how toos might be a bit outdated):
