How to add new hard drives to jellyfin using ubuntu

[Vikas Nanda]

i am guessing you are new to linux

the 'path to your new drive' would be the 'mount path', the device tree path /dev/sdd* is not a mount path (it's a device tree)

if not already done make sure there is an fstab entry for the new drive, best practice is to mount by uuid so that device tree identifiers changing do not alter mounts - https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-find...date-fstab

once you have it auto mounting to a location (mount -a or restart), typically to a path under /mnt/, then you can add that path to Jellyfin


from what i am gathering you are just opening the file explorer and now see your drive, this is not the proper way to set up a mount

Thanks although I am a little confused under files it says that the drive is mounted although I need to mount it manually through the gui each time the machine restarts. I have tried following the link and I have got to "appending the line" although I am not sure if it is now permanently mounted.
