Q about UNC paths


PBzeer

Recommended Posts

Have to add another external hhd for my movies. Up to now, I had a UNC path of \\computer name\Movies, which pointed to the Movies folder on the external hhd. That worked fine. What I'm wondering, in adding another hhd, do I just use a folder named Movies, or do I need a different name, like Movies 2 ?

 

In other words, does the server just use any folder on that machine named Movies, regardless of which drive it's on, or does each drive need a unique folder? (The other computer is on a LAN, the MB server is on this computer) Or do I just include the drive letter (\\computer name\F\Movies?)

If you add a new drive and don't have a drive pooling solution, then you will need to create a new share and add that share as a media location to your MB 3 library setup.  Mind you, not as a new media folder but a new media location in your existing media folders.
