I had to move some of my content to another NAS, but now I can’t figure out in the settings where to add that NAS in and and share it with my Plex server.
If someone can provide guidance or documentation, I’d appreciate it.
Thank you.
Option 1: Two Plex Media Servers
Run PMS on both NAS. Plex supports multiple servers on a single account.
Pin/share the libraries from PMS on NAS2 the same as you do with the current NAS. In the Plex clients, the server name will appear under the library name, so you can differentiate between “Movies” on NAS1 and “Movies” on NAS2.
Option 2: Run Plex Media Server on a separate system
Use the NAS for media storage. Run Plex on a different system.
Many people do this. I run Plex on a small Linux PC. It can access media files stored on two Synology NAS.
Option 3: Remote mount NAS2 directories on NAS1
From what I could find online, WD NAS do not have a built in feature to remote mount libraries from another NAS. However, it might be possible using the Linux command line.
Google “can a wd nas mount directories shared by another nas” to see the info. It may or may not be possible depending on the model, os version, etc.
Thank you very much for this information.
