    The update process will have absolutely zero impact. The completely different software stack that you're running post-update *can* have an impact (as we bumped ~95% of the packages in the distro; stuff has changed). The log shows both drives have issues mounting. It's unclear to me which filesystem is being used on the drives; there are messages about ext2/3/4, ntfs3 and f2fs.

    The NTP pool being set to de.pool.ntp.org suggests you've configured some things in the settings add-on. Can I ask you to take a spare SD card and do a clean install (don't set anything for NTP, etc.) then check the files again. I'd like to ensure this is a repeatable problem with the default configurations we have.

    I know that upgrade from 9.x to 11 wasn't supported and clean install was required but is it also the case with every future update like recently released 11.0.1? My 11.0.0 won't autoupgrade to 11.0.1?

    It was undesirable to direct update from 9 > 10/11 due to the Python 2 > 3 changes in Kodi which break add-ons. There is/was no issue with updating from 10 > 11 and in the future from 10/11 > 12. At the moment auto-update requires something to be manually set on the back-end infra else the OS doesn't prompt and we (staff) frequently forget to set it giving the incorrect appearance of it being broken (the process is, but not the code). We plant to move that logic client-side in LE12 to eliminate the forgetful humans from the process. I enabled auto-update for 11.0.0 > 11.0.1 yesterday for those who didn't already bump.

    Code
    HDR format: Dolby Vision, Version 1.0, dvhe.08.06, BL+RPU, HDR10 compatible / SMPTE ST 2094 App 4, Version 1, HDR10+ Profile A compatible

    Dolby Vision = No

    HDR10+ = No

    HDR10 = Yes

    HDR = Yes

    TL/DR; ^ the static formats are supported, the dynamic and proprietary ones are not. I'll also caveat that right now LE/Kodi (on Linux) have reached the "HDR support v1.0" milestone, and maybe v1.5 on RPi4 which has more plumbing for colourspace and bit-depth wired up. HDR support still needs more things in the Linux kernel to be agreed upon, and should hopefully improve with related planned changes for Kodi Omega (v21).
