Hi All, looking for some help. I’m running VMware ESXI 7 on a Dell PowerEdge r630. I’ve been trying to use this as an NAS to store my movies for Plex but I haven’t been able to see the datastore on my home network. I’m new to this and trying to learn so any advice is appreciated.

    What OS is the VM running as the “NAS”?

    A “datastore” is internal to ESXi and isn’t available on a network.
