Connect ReadyNAS directly to pc without internet?
Can Seagate NAS HHD 4TB hard drives that were in a ReadyNAS 316 be used in a ReadyNAS 104 4-bay Diskless or a ReadyNAS 314 4-bay Diskless? Does it matter what order they were in? They were mixed up. ...
Yes, the library scanning would be missing.

There is one another option, which is to use the NAS purely as a file server - connecting it directly to the PC via ethernet and mapping drive letters to the media files. Then install the plex server on the PC (and don't use the one on the NAS). That isn't as flexible as adding the extender, but it is potentially viable.
