The Easy Way to Share External Drives Between PCs
Today I helped an older client who runs multiple businesses from home. His setup was pretty wild — multiple computers, multiple routers, and huge external hard drives (8TB & 5TB). The challenge? He wanted to share each hard drive across his two main Windows 11 PCs without losing track or running into connection issues.
In this video, I walk through the exact steps I used to get everything working smoothly:
✅ Setting static IP addresses instead of relying on messy DHCP
✅ Fixing Telstra’s unreliable DNS by switching to Google & Cloudflare servers
✅ Disabling IPv6, which often breaks home setups and streaming devices
✅ Creating dedicated user accounts for file sharing with secure passwords
✅ Configuring Windows 11 file sharing and permissions the right way
✅ Adding shortcuts & quick access links so drives are easy to find on both PCs
By the end, both computers could access the other’s hard drive instantly — making it simple for my client to manage his files and stream movies across the network without slowdown. I even explain why Telstra DNS causes problems, why IPv6 isn’t always your friend at home, and how small changes in your router settings can save hours of frustration.
If you’ve ever struggled with:
🔹 External hard drives not showing up on another PC
🔹 Windows 11 network sharing not working
🔹 Slow or unreliable Telstra DNS
🔹 Confusion around DHCP vs Static IPs
…then this video will help you solve those headaches step-by-step.
