Give the child a name Step 2 – Creating a new user for Plex This step is optional. You can use whatever user you already have, I prefer creating an extra user just for Plex. Navigate to Account -> Users -> Add User Give it a Name, check Create a new primary group, enter a Full Name and a Password and hit create on the bottom.
Creating a new group is also optional, I prefer doing it tho. Creating a new User Step 3 – Changeing the Dataset permissions Now we need to change the Dataset permissions to our new User. Navigate to Storage -> Volumes -> View Volumes -> Select your volume -> Click on Permissions. Apply as in the image below. Adjusting permissions Step 4 – Creating a SMB share Now we got to create a share so that we can drag & drop files into our Plex Library directly from our Windows Computer.
