Is there a way to prevent mediascanner from scanning usb disks? I don't want or need my 5TB external drive to be scanned for media every time I boot (or it's connected).

Add a file to the root directory on your USB drive called .nomedia

This will tell mediascanner to not scan the directory that it's in or any directories below it.
