Need help setting up Immich to index my pictures on another drive (leminal.space)

I started using Docker containers last week, so this is all new to me.

I have a huge library of pictures in another drive (HDD) on my PC and I tried to setup Immich to index those.

I'm using Windows, Docker is installed on C: drive and I gave Docker permission to check the D: drive, but I can't make Immich find it when adding an external library.

I edited the yml file, including D:\Pictures but I get an error when trying to add the path in Immich.

Tried to search around, but without luck.

Someone knows how can I do this? Thank you :)

Would a samba share work for you? For instance, I have Navidrome setup as a docker container, but the audio is on a NAS drive. So I set the samba share parameters in my Navidrome docker compose, gave permissions, Bob's your uncle, Jack's a doughnut. Works great for my purposes.
