mrchetsteadman Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I want to stream from my portable HDD to my Plex media server and DON'T want to keep my computer running. Is it possible? I may not have explained this to your satisfaction so be gentle on me because I have no idea how to explain it better than I just did lol. Edit: The portable HDD is connected to my N600 router. Just realized I didn't include that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sc302 Veteran Posted February 15, 2015 Veteran Share Posted February 15, 2015 Plex media server has to be running on something that is on. It doesn't have to be a pc but it has to be something. Rasberry pi would work. If not, then a dedicated box that would run the plex server. zerolimit 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strollin Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 My Netgear R6300 router has a built-in DLNA server, I believe the N600 does too. You should be able to stream from it without the need for Plex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
