A lightroom question for any of you "power users"...

I do 100% of my editing on a PC desktop currently. My catalog is on a drive on my desktop for expediency and my raw photos sit on a NAS in another room of the house.

I recently purchased a laptop and would like to figure out the best workflow to use with it. I know Lightroom has a Mobile version if you pay for the subscription but as someone who bought the original Lightroom and has purchased every upgrade since then I don't feel like shelling out again or buying into Adobe CC.

My question is: Is there a way I can possibly share or sync my catalog with my laptop so I can review/edit photos remotely? I know I'd have to figure out how to point it to my NAS if I'm not on the network at my house but I'm just wondering if this is possible or if I should even bother trying.

Okay awesome, I have a synology 1513+ and I believe it has that capability but I'll have to look into it more. It definitely has a web interface. I should probably put it on a UPS if I end up doing that.

Haven't encountered that yet but definitely good to know. Any idea which version it was introduced with? I'll try to avoid
