Kubernetes: Store files in local hard disk using persistent volumes with Minikube

Question

I want to mount a folder that is located on my local hard disk (ex. /home/logon/volumes/algovens/ids/app_data/) on a pod:

{{/home/logon/volumes/algovens/ids/app_data/}} SHOULD BE MOUNTED ON {{/app/app_data/}} ON A POD

I create a persistent volume and a persistent volume claim, then import the pvc on my pod .yaml file. I apply all three yaml files for pv, pvc, pod into kubernetes cluster.

When getting access to the container using interactive bash, I see there's a folder that I've configured to mount from my local hard disk (/app/app_data/ ON POD), but it's still empty.

However, I have some files and folders on my local folder on my local hard disk (/home/logon/volumes/algovens/ids/app_data/)

My configuration files:
