Same disk that works on PVE doesn't work on PBS.

I'm trying to use a old 500 GB USB HDD as a backup disk, but even though it works normally in PVE, I can't seem to get it to work at all in PBS.



I've screen capture the error, see the video below:

PBS running in a container inside PVE.

What I've already tried and it didn't work:
Change from unprivileged to privileged container.
Create a PVE storage and mount the disk in the PBS container.

I personally would mount that disk in PVE and then bind-mount a folder on its filesystem into the PBS LXC. In case of a unprivileged LXC keep in mind that the backup user needs access to it, which should be mapped from UID 34 inside the VM to UID 100034 on the PVE host, so UID 100034 needs rights to access it.

I'll have to Google everything you just said! haha
But thanks, I'll see if I can solve it with your tips...
