I’m a newby for the Plex MS. I’m having trouble creating a music library.

I’ll my music is Windows folder located on the NAS (z:\PlexServer\Music). When I Add Library under Manage > Libraries, I select Music then click Next. My problem is when I click Browse For Media Folder. All it gives me is what I suspect is the NAS operating system file structure, and not the music folder structure.

What obvious step am I doing wrong?

Click on volume1.

The volume number is hidden by Synology File Manager, but visible when adding folders to Plex.

If permissions are set correctly, you can navigate to /volume1/PlexServer/Music.

Note: The system internal user PlexMediaServer must have at least read-only access to your media files. If you have access issues, see FAQ 19: Setting permissions to allow Plex access to media files.
