Plex Media Server Desktops & Laptops

Hello, i am on Arch Linux and i am setting up my new Linux server for plex. I went to localhost:32400/ and added a new library called films, but it cant see some directorys, eg, i have my media on a external hdd and i went to /run/media/arch but there aren’t any directorys in there… Any ideas to fix this

Also can you help with fstab editing

Linux is multi-user.

Plex is a different user than you.
Linux only allows you to see your files unless you specify otherwise.
The how-to shows you how to mount the media so multiple users (you and Plex) can use it.

I still dont understand the fstab editing, can you help me.
The uuid is
UUID="B82EF6522EF608E0"
And here is the Fstab file

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a device; this may
# be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices that works even if
# disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system>             <mount point>  <type>  <options>  <dump>  <pass>
UUID=72C0-8178                            /boot/efi      vfat    umask=0077 0 2
