    IMO, move your mount out of "dellxps13". Since ACLs can reappear on that directory if you plug in new drives.


    I'm relatively new to Linux. I didn't choose this mount location, -that is just where the external drive is automatically mounted when plugged in. I enter the drive in terminal and use
    Code:
    pwd
    to get the path. A search didn't reveal much on how to move the mount location out of a location...

    Yep.  That location is where drives are mounted when allowed to be auto-mounted.  In fstab you can mount it somewhere else.

    I opened the fstab file and added this as a new line at the bottom (copied and modified from your other discussion):
    Code:
    /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x50014ee00419ce97-part1 /media/dellxps13/1TB_MEDIA/ ext4 defaults 0 0

    However then I tried to run this command as recommended
    Code:
    sudo umount media/dellxps13/1TB_MEDIA/
    but got this error:
    Code:
    umount: media/dellxps13/1TB_MEDIA/: no mount point specified.

    Apologies I am not more versed in these areas. Appreciate your help.

    Code:
    [code]/dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x50014ee00419ce97-part1 /media/dellxps13/1TB_MEDIA/ ext4 defaults 0 0

    The second parameter is where you want the drive to be mounted and can be almost anywhere.  Change

    /media/dellxps13/1TB_MEDIA/

    to

    /media/{insert arbitrary folder name}

    For example.

    Code:
    sudo mkdir /media/library

    Then put this in /etc/fstab

    Code:
    /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x50014ee00419ce97-part1 /media/library ext4 defaults 0 0

    Then

    Code:
    sudo umount /media/dellxps13/1TB_MEDIA
    sudo mount -a
    sudo chgrp -R jellyfin /media/library
    sudo find /media/library -type d -exec chmod 770 {} \;
    sudo find /media/library -type f -exec chmod 660 {} \;

    In your umount command you missed the leading slash before "media".  Or you could reboot and it will mount this drive to the new location.
