Well thanks for your replies, but so far nothing helped... I followed the instructions and all the steps worked out as expected but steam still doesn't seem to care.

Hello community, i've recently build my very first NAS using FreeNAS and so far everything seems to work as expected. Now though, I want to install my Steam library to it and, well, it dosen't work... I've already been through the main troubleshooting steps (reinstall the game, reboot both the NAS and the PC in various orders, reinstall Steam, check for file integrity and tinker with the firewall settings, which I stopped due to lack of knowledge tho) but it still gives me the same "access denied" error. According to the FreeNAS Web UI everything behaves as normal. Here are all the specs i guess you might need: The NAS is set-up with one pool consisitng of one raidz2 vdev on which i have successfully configured a SMB-share. Windows sees it as a network drive with letter Z: and its fully accessible, read- and writeable (steam installs games to it no problem only when trying to start them the above happens) The NAS and PC are connected via 1gbE with a seperat switch. I also have tried out different launchers (would appreciate your help with those too :D): Epic seems to have similar issues, it installs just fine but cant find the install afterwards. Rockstar crashes on the last bit of the install process (have only tried once tho - GTA V takes me 4 hrs to download). Uplay straight up refuses to download to the Z: drive after choosing it and agreeing to the terms of use. I'll provide further info as needed. I hope you can help me Thanks in advance

Hey there guys! This here is my first entry on the forum so if I’m doing something wrong please tell me Now my question: I’m planning to sell my PS3 + games to cuz I’m simply not using it anymore. But I still have a fairly large collection of Blu Rays that I’m still watching with the PS acting as my current player. Tho I’m not sure wether to replace it with an external Blu ray player that connects directly to the TV or just get an external Burner/Player that connects to my PC as they’re way cheaper and my PC is connected to the TV anyways. So are there any disadvantages in using a pc-bound player or can I save the extra 100€ or so? Cuz I can’t really find anything why TV-bound player have any advantage whatsoever. Thanks in advance PS: 4K is not a necessity, would be nice to have tho.
