You’ll need to be more specific with your question and what you’ve tried

Thanks @uncut marten. I have Umbrel umbrelOS 1.2.1 running on an Umbrel 2TB - 16GB ram. I installed IMMICH (v1.106.4).

#

I tried to add an external library following these instructions: https://immich.app/docs/guides/external-library but on umbrel I can't find the Docker. Also 'This guide assumes you are running Immich in Docker and that the files you wish to access are stored in a directory on the same machine'.

#

My goal is to add a hard drive 5tb (I have 4tb of photos/videos)

#

This seems specific to your OS

#

You’ll need to figure out how to edit the docker compose files, if possible

Thanks @uncut marten Yes I've been trying to find more info on that and haven't figured it out yet.
