Question

Hi,
First of all, thank you for your great work on this project. I recently moved from Synology to Unraid but missed features like 'Drive,' which allows mobile apps to access some of the data on my NAS. Additionally, the photo sync feature is a nice addition for connected devices.

I tried to give VDSM access to my Unraid files over NFS and CIFS/SMB (via File Manager --> extra...), but I had no success. I remembered it's possible to 'add another path' via Unraid. After doing this, I could see the new path in the bash by performing ls -la.

Since 'volume1' is a virtual directory and doesn't directly correspond to a physical share, I can't mount it in my VDSM.
Is it possible to share a specific directory on my Unraid instance with VDSM?

thank you and happy new year :)
