This might be a bit long, so please bear with me. Relatively new user of FreeNAS, I set up a box 2 or 3 years ago and installed it as a document and media server, using Plex. I installed Plex via the plugins console. Worked great and really enjoyed it during this time. A few weeks ago I did something stupid. I was backing up the content on the server to a separate USB hard drive when I got the "bright" idea to install the available updates to FreeNAS via the web gui. I think this caused a crash of the USB drive on which I had it installed.
So I thought, it would be a good opportunity to upgrade to the latest version of FreeNAS. I downloaded and installed version 9.10.2-U3 and have the server up and running. I was able to import the volumes and can see them in the web gui in the volume manager. I then installed the Plex media server, again via the plugins console.
The problem I'm having is finding where in the storage volumes my original media and documents are stored to a) share them via CIFS and b) have the plex server find them. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
