I think I'm wasting my time with this thing, reviews seem to point towards the rubbish bin, but it was free so why not give it a crack.

 

Basically all I want to do is run a Plex media server off this thing but for the life of me I cannot find online a setup/installation program to access it.

 

Either I'm blind or this thing is no longer supported by Toshiba

Has anyone (long shot) got one or had one of these and may still have the installation disc I could borrow?

 

 

 

Failing that I might just gut the HDD out and bin the rest.

 

 

 

Thanks

If attacked by a bear, play dead....

 

It will be good practice for when you die a couple minutes later.

Tried emailing Toshiba support?
