FYI ?

In linux, we use `/media` , not `\media`😉

Path delimiter is the forward facing `/`😃

Once you have the drive unmounted from nautilus,

you can figure out what it is and get it into /etc/fstab so that on next reboot (or mounting by target path … e.g… `sudo mount /plex`) it will end up where you want it and Nautilus will not get it.
