Accessing USB storage connected to a smart TV as a network drive?

[Zeke]

Does Tizen (or any other smart TV OS for that matter) allow you to work with files on the USB drive connected to the TV from another device through the network?

Personally my smart tv doesnt allow that but I just have a Sony smart tv. You can always go to Tizen's support forums and ask there.

I figured I'd ask it on the known grounds first

I do remember though my old Network switch had a usb 3.0 port on the back that if configured right you can use it as a network drive so you could always check up on that too

I do have a NAS but the problem is that due to physical placement of my TV and how my network works, running a wired connection would not be easy and I doubt that DLNA from a network drive will work smoothly with 1080p content due to WiFi speeds.
