Samba and LVM Question - Warning Newb Alert

[drelliott06]

I got stuck in a password loop on my ubuntu server for plex which ultimately ended in performing a clean install with 18.04

Everything is up and running but I made a few changes this time around.

I created an LVM using two hard drives for a total of 10TB and I mounted this volume to /mnt/media

I then installed samba and edited the configuration file path to /mnt/media

Windows recognized the media folder without any issues and I can now transfer files easily back and fourth

However, I just noticed that windows is reading media at 5TB and not 10TB

Is this because windows can not understand LVM or did I setup the smb.conf incorrrectly?

Thanks in advance for your expertise

I believe the answer is on this page

I will keep at it and hopefully figure it out.

Not that I can't type other peoples code, I want to understand the steps and reasoning.
