Hey everyone! I'm trying to get some help with a Windows task involving Nextcloud AIO. I'm using Docker Desktop and I want to make a specific folder in my Music directory (located in F:MusiciTunesMusic) available in my Nextcloud storage. I already have an ncdata folder on Windows that Nextcloud uses, and I'm hoping to find a way to include my music folder without disrupting the existing setup. My aim is to use Nextcloud WebDAV to keep my music folder up-to-date no matter where I am. I've tried various methods I found online but nothing seems to work. I thought about using SMB with the External Storage plugin, but that caused a lot of lag and sync issues. Also, I missed the part during the Nextcloud setup where I could have set access to local storage, so I'm looking for a step-by-step guide to help me fix this. I'd really appreciate any guidance!

To make your music folder accessible in Nextcloud, you'll want to mount it as a Docker volume. Basically, you'll need to adjust your Docker container settings to include your music folder. Use the `-v` option in your Docker run command to specify the path to your music folder and map it to a directory inside the container. Then, configure Nextcloud to recognize that path. This way, your music can coexist alongside the ncdata folder without issues.
Just a heads up, the volume mount approach will help improve performance compared to using SMB. Once you have the music folder mounted correctly, you should be able to access and sync it through Nextcloud without the lag you're experiencing. If you're unsure about the exact commands, I can help break it down further!
