Question about Device ownership & file access

Using linux Mint 20.2 Xfce.
computer:/// lists all my devices.
Checking properties / permissions shows attached media HDD ownership as "root:root "
In the terminal using “ls -la” shows device ownership “guy:guy”
I have Plex mediaserver that so far is unable to access the files on all the attached HDDs that display the same properties as listed above.
File permissions for the media drives is 775

Any guidance is greatly appreciated.
