You can use find:
find /run/media/your_username/EXTERNAL_HDD_MOUNTPOINT -iname "*.iso"
replace EXTERNAL_HDD_MOUNTPOINT with the actual path of your external HDD partition.
If your device has been mounted last, use this to find mountpoint:
df -h|tail -n 1|rev|cut -d' ' -f1|rev
[root@localhost /]# umount /dev/sdb1 [root@localhost /]# mount /dev/sdb1 /home/sskitzo/usbHDD [root@localhost /]#
This is what I did.
I mkdir /home/sskitzo/usbHDD first tho.
Then, I can use GUI Files browser to search my external drive.
fuser told me drive was sdb1 after inserting external drive.
Also, I discovered GUI File Browser Magnifying Icon Search query only searches $HOME
So, that is why I mounted HDD to $HOME
