As stated very new to pi Linux and plex just followed instructions to mount external hard drive etc when I load plex it can find the hard drive but when I try to add it to library the drive appears to be empty (same drive works fine and loads up on Kodi) any ideas as to what I’ve done wrong or what I need to do to view the movies on the external hard drive
(1) install ntfs-3g
sudo apt install ntfs-3g
(2) follow the instructions I have recently given in another thread. Of course, adapt the disk name /media/pi/ledisk and /mnt/ledisk to your own setup.
So basically what I take from this is Kodi is far better than plex as it manages to find and play everything contained in the drive without needing to have a doctorate in computer coding 
If anyone is willing to help it would be greatly appreciated need to dumb it down as far as possible and step by step as I am total noob when it comes to anything tech
Your drive is mounted at /media/pi/Seagate\ Expansion\ Drive, not /media/pi/seagate.
So it is sudo umount /media/pi/Seagate\ Expansion\ Drive in the first step.
Edit: you can also just do this: sudo umount /dev/sda2.
