Hey guys, I’m new to self-hosting; I’m trying to set up cloud storage to store pics and other content. However, I’m unsure whether to use my old computer, Buy NAS or ResberryPie to set up a home server.
Also, what is the best privacy-friendly OS to use with the home server?
Lastly, do’s and don’ts.
Any help would be appreciated (:
The 2 usb ports on RPI share the same usb controller and pcie lines, so you can’t expect max throughput on both ports simultaneously
Problem was less the throughput and more the power it could provide to supply both a 2.5" hdd and ssd.
If you connected the monitor your could see a bolt on the monitor probably warbing about undervoltage/power.
When I upgraded the kernel it went down during the upgrade.
I had an issue with only 1 SSD powered from USB, couldnt even run SMART test. Found that after I got corrupted system. Getting external power supply makes it more bulky and have to be careful with compatibility
