SMB Connects to RasPi SD card instead of External Drive

  • Hi Everyone,


    I recently made a RasPi Plex server with OMV5. Everything works except i cannot transfer files to the external drive. When i use SMB/CIFS it connects to the SD card of the RasPi instead of the External Drive.


    I have shared the proper folders with guest access allowed, with no luck.


    I must add that after i installed raspbian on the sd card, i used the expand drive function (?) to expand the sd card to use all the space available. Would this be the issue?


    any help is greatly appreciated!


    thank you!

    Then something somewhere would suggest you have created/setup shared folders incorrectly


    Post an image of: file system page, shared folders page and smb/cifs shares page

    Raid is not a backup! Would you go skydiving without a parachute?

  • You were right! i double checked the folders and it told me my drive was offline. then i physically walked over to the drive bay and it was off. i turned everything on and reconnected and now everything work!


    Thank you!
