USBmount

Tue Jan 17, 2017 9:01 pm

Hi guys!

I got my Raspberry Pi 3 this week and wanted to set it up as a NAS.
Everything worked fine at first. The only thing I didnt like was, that my HDD was spinning all the time (its pretty loud).
Thats why i looked for a program that would remount my HDD after it rebooted although my Pi was running all the time.
The program if found was USBmount.

I managed to configure it so that it would mount the HDD to the path that i was using for the NAS before using USBmount. (/mnt/HDD1)
The thing is that i cant accesse the Pi from my Laptop anymore. Im guessing the problem is that USBmount mounts /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1.
Could this be possible and if yes could anyone help me fix this issue?

The HDD ist NTFS formatted and only contains 1 partition.
Im really new to this so I dont really know which information I need to provide to you. Just let me know and ill try to add it.
I'd really apprechiate your help.

Regards,
Kevin
