Hello everyone, young, new homelabber here, got a couple problems that I’m failing to find a fix to and I’m wondering if anyone can help?

I’m currently running my lab on Ubuntu.
One of my problems is where on most reboots some or all of my drives get remounted with an extra number;

SSD to SSD1 to SSD2 etc

Each time the previous drive becomes empty yet can be utilised, with files and structures remaining intact, just on the newer mount.

This is quite the pain with it messing up homepage and other docker containers in the process. Any way I can stop this?

The second issue happened when i moved the computer, so as such I stopped all my containers via portainer then accessed the server via ssh Tailscale to docker compose down portainer, I then shut down the server, moved it and tried to boot everything back up. Portainer was fine, ollama was fine, everything else was not and I’m now missing all my docker compose files, homepage config was reset and problem 1 occurred except SSD had an earlier version of my file structure.
SSD1 had my complete file structure with my compose files missing and fresh, default configs.

I’ve tried and failed recover of previous configs but I’m ok with that, I just want to see how I can prevent this from happening again in future.
