how do i put the mnt/hdd folder as share?

Share for what?

the mnt/HDD folder I can’t share via samba, the mnt/dietpi_userdata folder is visible, how can I share this folder via samba, do I have to change any settings? Sorry, I’m kind of lost.

Probably you should have had a look to our online docs…File Servers Options - DietPi.com Docs

There it is explained how to change the destination directory.

I have to insert the folders or just copy the lines?

 sed -i '/path = /c\path = /Path/To/Directory' /etc/samba/smb.conf
systemctl restart nmbd smbd

you would need to replace the placeholder with your own path.
