The computer I use as my Plex server has two boot drives: one personal and one for work. The Plex server is installed on my personal drive, as that is what I was booted into most of the time. Now, with the recent stay at home orders related to COVID-19, I’m working from home full time and spending a considerable amount of time booted to my work drive. With kids stuck at home as well, continued access to our media would be very helpful so I am thinking about solutions.
All media is stored on non-boot drives, which are accessible regardless of which copy of Windows I start. Would the best solution be to set up another Plex server on my work boot drive? Or is there another, more elegant option?
Applying the registry should have also change the appdata location, but check it just in case.
Your account should show only 1 server. But keep in mind that some PMS settings are saved in the registry so if you make changes, you’ll need to redo that setting in the other boot drive.
