Kill yourself.

Please just call it Network Attached Storage (NAS). I get what you're saying, but you sound like a buffoon.

cant even plex that thing. no thanks.

>not just building your own freenas server
>not just buying a synology NAS if you're lazy to do the above

please kill yourself op

You bought a shit tier NAS system OP, but you can at least store stuff on it I guess.

>>56554572
>What should I do with it?
Store stuff and be happy, I guess.

I like to make my own stuff though, as this anon said >>56554841 FreeNas is best girl.

I just set up Transmission on my server, and I run it through a user that routes all of its traffic through my VPN, and kills the network for that account if it looses connection to the VPN. I use Transmission Remote GUI to connect to it with my computer. I have everything download straight into my Emby library, where it can be streamed to any of my computers over my local network. My Emby library is ~2TB right now.

I also use NFS to share files with all of my computers, and I have a terraria server running.

Guys is it a good idea to make your own server? I could possibly do it, but I have no idea what to use it for.

Then don't do it, I could go on vacation but I don't know what to do there now so why should I do it ?
Simple you can do whatever you want with a server.
I run a pretty big KVM setup with ~40VMs for testing/updates and trying new shit out before deploy it on work.
If you are interested in doing whatever fills your gap with it then do it.

Only thing I could think of is maybe make a TeamSpeak and game server, other than that no idea.

>Torrent shit
>Store shit
>Stream shit
My main PC can do all of this

>>56555938
It's not that worth it unless you have shitloads of stuff that you wanna store. Like terabytes of high quality blu ray rips, lossless music libraries etc.

Buying a NAS or server just to store a bunch of terabytes is too overkill, just buy a portable hard drive if you want that.
