New to Amahi, how do I access my drives?

So this is the first actual time that I've gotten Amahi to work and communicate with my Windows pc.

After learning that I have to type in \hda in the address bar of windows explorer to access the server, I see a bunch of folders. None of them have any content that I previously put on my drives connected to the server. In the web page, under disks it shows that I have 4 hard drives connected with things like /dev/sda under the device column, but I go into windows explorer and see none of that.

How do I connect to my drives so that I can access their content over my home network?

Thanks for your help.

You need to follow the adding a second hard drive to your HDA guidance. This is necessary to mount the drives so you can access their content.

Once you have them mounted, you would then want to create a share to point to each one.

Oh okay, that makes sense. In Ubuntu you have to mount drives as well.

Alrighty then I'll get right on that. Thanks for your help!

No problem. Hope it all goes well.

EDIT: BTW did you follow this guidance for install?
