That was it, thanks. It was also necessary to restart the R7000:
unplug/plug no
plugin 2nd SSD no
restart R7000 yes, 2nd SSD
plugin old SSD no
plugin thumb dv no
plugin 1st SSD yes, 1st SSDUpdate: My backup program now accesses the original SSD on Readyshare correctly.
However, I neglected to say previously that when I plugged in the old/original SSD following viewing the 2nd SSD with File Explorer, Explorer continued to display the contents of the 2nd SSD. This even after refreshing the view in File Explorer. Readyshare was continuing to transmit the previous UBS contents. It took a restart of the R7000 before File Explorer could read the current SSD correctly.
I wonder it this experience doesn't imply a programming issue. I expected that to plug in a new UBS drive would cause Readyshare to clear from its memory the contents of the old one - so that File Explorer could see the current SSD correctly.
