How to use external USB HDD to store recordings

I've given up trying to use my Synology NAS to increase space for recordings.  Not because of IceBox but a problem with Synology nfs shares. Therefore, I've purchased a 4Tb USB drive.  LibreElec automatically recognises the drive and mounts it to /var/media/TOSHIBA EXT.
Can anyone suggest how I can override this automatic behaviour and instead, mount it to /storage/recordings, please?

You can browse to TVH on your IceBox and change the recording location there.

http://[IceBox IP]:9981

Go into Configuration -> Recording -> (Default Profile) and change the "Storage path" under the "Filesystem Settings" to the location of your external HDD.

If you don't see that option, go into Config->General and set your "Default view level" to 'Expert".
