Hi,

I’ve been fighting with this for the best part of 2 days now after upgrading my old Sonos system, replacing  a connect with a port and adding an ERA 100 and replacing S1 app with the new thing. I’ve always kept my music on a NAS drive so that I can share it more easily(I play in a band and we record our practice sessions and ideas) and so that it doesn’t take over system drives.

My system consists of a Windows 10 computer, an android tablet, an iphone 15 and a macbook pro. After about ½ a day I finally managed to get Sonos to see the USB drive on my Macbook pro but there seems like no way that it will look at the NAS drive connected to the router.

Is it even possible to still access a NAS drive? I’ve looked at all of the advice online that I can find but nothing seems to work :-(

As an ex software designer/developer I often wonder whether companies do any testing at all before they release new software and firmware.

Now from being rather fond of Sonos I’ve reached the stage where I wish I’d never heard of them :-(

Yes you can still access a NAS as long as it uses SMB V2 or above as the May release dropped support for the older SMB V1.

If you provide details of the make and model of your NAS there is a good chance that someone here will be able to help you get it working. It is probably a simple configuration task on the NAS.

There are some issues with the way that music on the NAS is displayed but the core functionality works.
