progress! It may have been mentioned before, and it might be a bit premature, but a few of us here use freefilesync to mirror our library after additions, changes, etc. (there are others I have not used, rsync?) What I do, is my primary music library, which I maintain, add to, etc resides on my pc. I use freefilesync to maintain a mirror of the library on the pi HDD. I also use it to mirror to another SS HDD that I take to another location to mirror to that pi HDD. It is a bit extra work when you add new music, say, rip a CD to PC, freefilesync to pi HDD, rescan @ pcp. But the nice thing is that you have backup(s) of your music library. Similarly, I backup my PC's personal files (documents, photos, etc) to the pi HDD using freefile sync as well. So my personal files are also backed up.
