You'll need to update the path and UUID in the database. Go to the digiKam
collection settings and use the "Refresh" icon button (circle symbol) next to
the collection and set the new path, even if it is the same, the UUID will be
updated. If you have actually cloned, you may now have 2 drives with the same
volume UUID. digiKam can no longer differentiate between these volumes. Either
change the volume UUID of a hard drive with an appropriate tool or reformat a
drive. There cannot be multiple drives with the same volume UUID.
Unfortunately, this is the case with new drives of the same type and
manufacturer if they are already formatted in the factory.
