My device freezes when browsing a large library on an external drive. What should I do?

If your device freezes, restarts or becomes slow when browsing a large music library stored on an external SSD or hard drive, try the following steps.

  1. Connect the drive directly to a USB port of your Volumio device, without a USB hub.

  2. For large drives, we recommend the ext4 file system with a GPT partition table.

  3. Restart the device from Settings → System and let the library scan finish completely before browsing.
