Hi.. I need to call on the collected expertise of the forum please.
Brand new B2, arrived yesterday. My second one. My intention is to load it from the back-up hard drive I have from B2 number one. This backup was made by exporting to USB on the B2 No.1, so I know it is in the correct format etc..
Unpacked the new one, checked internal SD card was correctly seated, powered up and updated software to latest. Powered down in the correct way...
This morning, connected back-up drive to USB C via a powered USB hub.
Powered on B2 - it scanned USB and showed the expected 27000 plus tracks - all FLAC
Selected "Import from C" - set it going and let it do its stuff. Checked periodically.
B2 went into "Standby" after importing 3000 plus tracks. Powered down, checked HDD stats which showed the tracks were there.
Cannot restart "Import" as it will start from track one - it is not incremental - so I formatted the internal HDD and started again. Same problem.
Reformatted and restarted Import again, this time from USB A - that one is still running.
I seem to recall seeing something in
the forum about others with problems trying to do "large" imports but
cannot find a solution there.
I suppose in the event of large import failure I could transfer from the back-up drive in smaller amounts using another portable HD butI'm puzzled why this should happen. There are no overheating issues, the 2TB back up drive is fine, all connections good.
I am hopeful that this attempt will succeed but in the event of another failure can anyone give me any ideas of where to look for the problem please?
Thank you..
