Link NAS - to create one NAS
Hello ReadyNAS 104 runs a Plex server. I'd like to be able to link NAS 104 to NAS NV+. NAS NV+ has media stored that I'd like the Plex server to access. Is that possible? Thank you.
Possible, yes. Watchable, even without any transcoding of the content on the NV+, who knows. A good idea, no. Your RN104 is already underpowered, and bucket-brigading data from an even slower NV+ through it is a really poor concept. You are better off getting a MicroPC or other platform to act as your Plex server and use both NAS simply for storage.
But if you really want to try, enable NFS on a share on the NV+ and mount it via the fstab file on the 104. If Googling how to use fstab in Linux isn't enough information for you to accomplish this, then it's an even worse idea.
