Plex on Ubuntu HELP!

[jhudson2]

I am running the latest version of Ubuntu-- I have installed the following with Docker:

Plex
Sonarr
Radarr
getnzbd

Everything works great except I’m having a hard time getting Plex to recognize my 10TB external hard drive that stores all of my media. I know this is a permission issue but I need help.

Using EXT, NTFS, or other format drives (internal or external) on Linux

This document is of primary interest to anyone who has connected USB drives or has media on other internal drives but user plex can’t access it due to Linux’s default security mechanisms. WARNING: This procedure will not work for SNAP, Docker or other container mechanisms unless expressly handled within the confines of the container. This procedure is intended for use with the dpkg package. We will walk through the steps needed to add these external USB hard drives and internal hard drives…

When I go to disks I now see the “easystore” dir but it is empty—is this normal behavior?

My instructions are command line based.
Plex on Linux isn’t as easy as clicking buttons in windows just yet.
