copy files from PC to NAS

Post by OldYogi »

My primary music library is on my PC, maintained with MM. I loaded that library on an external usb hard drive ("HD") and then attached that HD to my Asus RT-AC68U wifi router. The router then set it up as a DLNA server. Works fine. MM finds the router, and identifies the router as a media server. I can access it and play music from it over wifi from any PC in the house running MM.

When I add new music to the library on my PC I'd like to be able to copy it to the HD attached to the Router.
Windows7 recognizes the router as a network device, but doesn't assign a drive letter. So I can't copy directly using Windows copy.
In MM, under Tools>Options>Portable Audio devices the HD doesn't appear.

I suspect this is not really a MM problem,but a windows or router problem, but any suggestions would be appreciated.

The device should be accessible with its UNC Path (something like \\DeviceName\folder). You can move files to that path using Tools > Auto-Organize Files on selected files.
