I click on the Configure button, this opens up my Plex website to configure my server. When i click on
Your Media it asks to click on Get Plex Media Server button.

CONT. from first post above. Wouldn’t allow me to embed more than 2 images. Apologize in advance.

I click on that and it takes me to the Downloads page. There is an option for Western Digital under the Nas section in the dropdown. I downloaded that file and it is a bin file. Is this the correct file to download? If so how do I install it or do I place it somewhere?

This is where I’m stuck. I found this website https://support.plex.tv/articles/115003310834-western-digital-my-cloud-home/ but when I go to My Cloud home website, I don’t see a Services for Plex like it is stated in the instructions.

Can someone please help me figure how to finish my install of Plex on my PR4100. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The stuff above I don’t believe is the issue now.

The problem I see is when I get to the browser window with my IP address it doesn’t recognize my Nas drive and it asks me to Get Plex Media Server which takes me to this page to download again.

I installed Plex server on my personal computer which has Windows 11 and this is the screen I get to setup.

I don’t get to this screen after installing and clicking Configure on my Nas drive

last time I tried playing around with Plex on WD NAS and other NAS type what tripped me up was the
Select Install using Plex Claim Token and Get Plex Claim Token. step

I use VLC and infuse now to watch files directly from my WD NAS units.
