Interaction with a shared network drive from within Sharepoint

Question

Our users generate 2 to 10 GB per project site per year, so we would like to make a distinction between "archived documents" on a network (e.g. Novell) drive, and documents that are actively worked on or shared, which are to be stored in Sharepoint 2013.

Can you recommend a way that integrates these two storage paradigms within one Sharepoint user interface?

For example: would it be possible to expose everything to search, and also embed a network file storage browser in a web part?

Answer 1

Not easy but try this one
