I have been running OMV4 for the last couple years. It is a basic bare bones operation and the ONLY function I have been using it for is SMB file sharing with a Windows 10 Pro ethernet network.
I am wanting to get into Plex. I am considering installing Plex with Docker, as suggested by TDL, versus plugins. In what studying I have done so far I think I am seeing that it might be to my benefit to move to OMV5 and then install OMV5. I will use TDL's [(OMV5) Stable Complete Install and Setup including Portainer] video to install OMV5 if I proceed.
I have a spare Kingston 120 GB Solid State drive that I am considering installing OMV5 onto.
Here's my main concern: Obviously I'm not near as advanced as most of you on this forum. That said, do I have to set everything back up again regarding shares -OR- is there a way to just use the new OMV5 install to connect with the current file system located and serving from a single 4TB hard drive. Seems kinda spooky to reinvent the wheel as far as my current file structure is concerned.
Just trying to figure out how to proceed without a ton of mistakes to deal with during or following a new OMV5 install. Will appreciate any help you're willing to give.
Thanks, Kai
