Preferred method for connecting second drive to steam?

Both drives were connected when I installed bazzite-deck, second drive is mounted and shows up in deck mode but it says I need to format it (fails).

Should I just pop over to desktop mode and hook it up through steam there by pointing it at the drive in mnt or should I alter the drive mount location to a second steamapps folder?

Is there something I'm missing?
