  • I use unraid and used it for Time Machine back ups.

    I also use it for smb shares. For captureone libraries and apps, like renpy games

    Start with 2 8tb wd red they’re 122$ on Amazon right now. One parity and one data. You’ll have 8 tb to use.

    Then pick up and eBay pc 8th gen or more from dell or Lenovo or hp for about 200. 8th get i5 allows a good plex setup for media sharing
