NAS and always mount external disk
I am a member!
How do I turn my Trisquel server into a NAS?
Always mount external disk, if the disk is plugged in.
Disk is to house all my files and data.
How do I do it?
Should the disk be in /srv?
Does this show that there's an empty bay inside the computer on /dev/sdb
that I can put my disk in?
caleb@farnsworth:~$ lsblk

It looks like /dev/sdb is drive that is detected by the system, but its size is zero bytes. If it's a hot-swap bay that might be no disk is inserted. Or it could also indicate that a disk is physically present but not properly connected, or is faulty or incompatible in some way.
