Managed to reformat SSD to ext4 from within Linux and now it shares automatically.  Think I'll just go with that but if anyone gets exFAT working, please let us know. Being a Mac user with no Windows PC, I don't know of any easy way to format a disk as ext4 (or NTFS) so just loading a usable 2nd SSD, in any format, onto Snakeoil was surprisingly difficult. If exFAT would work, it would not only make that easy but I could load music from my Mac before installing the SSD onto Snakeoil...maybe.  Wink

I may have missed something simple here. Happy to be educated.

Cheers
JD
