Can anyone assist me with installing nextcloud i am having issues setting the right datasets i am trying to install app on ssd and store files and data on hdd i tried www-data as the user and group just like other videos says and its little to no success
Yeah, this setup is absolutely doable. What usually trips people up isn’t the datasets themselves, but how Nextcloud handles mounts and permissions.
The clean approach is to keep the Nextcloud application and config on the SSD, then mount the HDD separately and point the data directory there. The HDD must be mounted before Nextcloud starts, and the entire path needs to be writable by www-data, including the parent directory. That’s the part I’d pay closest attention to.
Once the mount order and permissions are correct, Nextcloud doesn’t really care whether the data lives on SSD, HDD, or both. It just needs consistent access every time it starts.
I was able to do it another way with some instrutions i found on discord
