How to point the storage to an external drive?
Hi, I am trying to run this in my ubuntu server but with only 16gb ssd. I would like to point the storage to an external hdd partition instead.

Ente relies on S3-compatible cloud storage for storing files. Ente ships MinIO as S3-compatible storage by default in quickstart and Docker Compose for quick testing. You can find more information on configuring S3 buckets at https://help.ente.io/self-hosting/administration/object-storage#configuring-object-storage.

Change the minio volume to point to a directory on your mounted Drive.

volumes
- /mnt/USBDISK/ente-data:/data
But I would never recommend running minio on a USB device. So please only do that for testing purpuses.
