Hi,

I have a colo server and I’m looking for things to do with it.

Would anyone be interested in a native NBD file server?

You would be able to mount a file on my server as if it was a drive on your computer.

Then you can store your files easily on the drive.

This is already possible with things like S3 fuse, but these solutions are extremely glitchy since the underlying API is not made for a block device.

My solution would be rock solid and hosted at a professional data center.

I recommend encrypting your files before uploading them if they are at all sensitive.

Other than that it should be extremely easy to use.

Please send me a chat message if you are interested.

Thanks!
