NOTE: the second and third parameters will change depending on the type we found earlier. In the editor add a new line UUID=abcdefghi /media/data ntfs-3g defaults,windows_names,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0 The last command should launch an editor. In the terminal type sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.old Make a back up and then modify the fstab file. Replace data with the desire folder name to create. In the terminal type sudo mkdir /media/data This folder will be used as a mount point for the other hard drive. Next create a folder located on the same hard drive as your Linux installation. Let’s pretend my UUID is abcdefghi and type is NTFS Most likely if you want to use the other hard drive you’ll want it to auto mount.Īuto mount will mount the hard drive on boot.īut first we need to get the Universal Unique Identifier of the drive. This how to will be focused on Ubuntu, but I believe will work on other Linux versions as well. If Plex Media Server can’t find your files which are located on a separate hard drive other than the hard drive Linux is on chances are it needs to be mounted.
