From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yeah I never truly resolved the proper permission settings - tried to understand and research and figure it out even though I’m a complete Linux newb.
My workaround was figuring out that I can mount the drive in the Plex directory and it finally could see the media. I had to override the default behavior when Unbuntu auto mounts it to a specific directory when you plug the HDD in while the OS is running.
