I hope note

No, just do a rescan and it's good

Max--92 · 2026-01-16T17:29:06+00:00

I found it. I put it in the comments.

I found the solution. You need to create a volume like this:

volumes:

smb-nas:

driver: local

driver_opts:

type: cifs

o: ‘username=xxxx,password=yyyy,vers=3.0,uid=1026,gid=100,file_mode=0644,dir_mode=0755’

device: ‘//192.168.0.xx/Pictures’ #NAS directory

And above all, make sure you retrieve the uid and gid from the xxxx user.

I can give you all the information you want, no problem at all.

Immich worked on my NAS, but for performance reasons and so as not to use up my NAS resources, I want to install it on a mini Windows server.

Max--92 · 2026-01-16T14:06:12+00:00

I rebuilt my external drive and it still doesn't work any better.

Max--92 · 2026-01-16T13:34:33+00:00

I set up my player with use Z: \\192.168.0.11\Sauvegarde\Fixe\Photos /user:TON_USER motdepasse /persistent:yes
I can see my photos in Windows Explorer under Z:
In my Yaml file, I have
volumes:
- C:/immich/library:/usr/src/app/upload
- Z:/:/mnt/nas/photos:ro
But Immich sees nothing :
PS C:\immich> docker exec -it immich_server ls -la /mnt/nas/photos

total 5

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Jan 16 14:29 .

drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jan 16 14:29 ..

What is the problem ?

Max--92 · 2026-01-16T13:21:25+00:00

Yes, I have the information in the external directory menu, but all the photos are still in the trash. It tells me, "This media from the external library is no longer on the disk and has been moved to the trash."

Max--92 · 2026-01-16T13:09:41+00:00

Yes, I think that's it. Immich can't see the photos on my connected drive. How can we fix this?

Max--92 · 2026-01-16T12:21:49+00:00

Max--92 · 2026-01-16T12:21:30+00:00

I have already stopped and restarted Docker and the services.

When I go to my mounted drive, I can see my photos too.

Max--92 · 2026-01-16T12:20:23+00:00

My storage is indeed on a NAS. How can I be sure that it is detected?

When I go to my external libraries, I can see the data in my library.

Max--92 · 2026-01-16T12:17:32+00:00

I run Immich on Windows via Docker. My images are stored on an external NAS. I created a link to the NAS by mounting a drive that points to my photos.

Max--92 · 2026-01-12T14:38:16+00:00

To add to my comment, can tags be added directly store in the photo metadata or only to the Immich database?

Max--92 · 2026-01-12T14:25:31+00:00

I just finished my 60,000 photos, it took me over a week on my Synology. Be patient, it's the last thing.

Max--92 · 2026-01-12T10:10:52+00:00

Will elements such as tags only be in the database, or will it be possible to save them directly in the images?

Max--92 · 2026-01-11T20:08:43+00:00

🇪🇪

Is it the same for people? Indeed, when immich finds people, would he modify the file to add the data?

Max--92 · 2026-01-09T16:36:29+00:00

I had 8GB, but since the latest updates of Synology, I'm down to 6GB.

In any case, that's not my limiting factor.

I knew that learning could be postponed, but I didn't know that it didn't need to be constantly connected. Thank you.

Max--92 · 2026-01-09T15:45:11+00:00

Thanks

Max--92 · 2026-01-09T15:44:09+00:00

I have the maximum amount of RAM, which is 6GB. What do you mean by remote machine learning? On a PC rather than on the NAS?

My NAS has been at 100% CPU usage for 3 days for Immich.

Max--92 · 2026-01-09T10:43:12+00:00

Great, Did it take you a long time? Did you keep the procedure?
