I am an new user to Proxmox and still learning the platform, so sorry if it is a trivial question.

My computer has an SSD and an HDD connected to it, Proxmox is running on the SSD.
I mounted the HDD through the shell using `mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/hdd`.

I want to attach this HDD to one of my VMs, but can't find how. I tried creating new LVM Thinpool and a new Directory but both only let me select the thumb-drive that happens to be connected to the machine.
I can see in the `Disks` section that the HDD is detected and mounted, so I don't really understand why it doesn't appear as an option
