Hi Mrmwm,
Welcome to the Home Assistant Forum.
Just plain mounting another drive will not work as you expect with HAOS.
All the AI chabots are working on instructions that it was trained with months or more ago. It makes pseudo-random probability based guesses based on old info.
If you want to do something, look at the the HA docs. They follow the current software release.
Another hint, for regular talk, just type. If you are copying a formatted response from your AI chatbot, remove the formatting. That question is a bit of a chore to read for us.
