Really confused with setting up my Plex on my Pi and hard drive

I have Plex set up on my pi, am able to access it from my mac, but I can’t seem to add the hard drive to the plex in any way that it can see it. I have tried mounting it using several different methods found on different threads and NOTHING is working. Now I am to a point I can’ t see the hard drive on the pi, somehow I have made a change that screwed something up and not sure how to fix it. I am VERY new to this.

have tried - "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt "
then if I do "df"it shows that it is mounted. However Plex can’t find it
I tried editing /etc/fstab to include the drive and that didn’t work so removed it.

not sure what I am doing wrong but this is VERY frustrating.

and I have no idea how to do a screen shot from the pi and get it to my mac, so I know that doesn’t help either.

Running Plex Server on the Pi ist unsupported.

How is Plex installed on the Pi? Through a docker or the unofficial package? Which OS are you running on the Pi?

I did not use a docker but finally have it up and running. Took a bit for learning how to mount the drives properly with permissions. Thanks!
