Win 7 Pro & Win 7 Starter - Connect to drive through internet (lik


Recommended Posts

Hello,

On my local home PC, I am running Windows 7 Pro.

I store all of my working files on my: E:// drive.

I use a mini-computer that is running Windows 7 Starter.

I am out and about all of the time, and I need to be able to simply connect to my local PC E:// drive from my mini-computer through the internet.

I was researching some different options, and so many people suggest VPN. But I don't want to run my local PC from my mini. I just want to use the drive as if it were a mapped drive on a network, so I can save, open, etc files from this "mapped" drive.

Maybe I don't understand VPN well enough...

Anyone have a simple and minimalistic approach to this problem? This is my first time attempting this, so just wanted to start on the right foot at least.

Thanks.
