    my dream is to build my own NAS. it would handle everything i need: it would be a Nextcloud, media server, website host, Matrix server, Minecraft server, and when i’m not doing anything with it at the moment i’ll have it donate its time to seeding and relaying

      if your that passionate about NASs, may I ask how does one negate data loss if a lighting were to strike? or fire?

      I get Raid an all that, but I don’t care how many times my data got burnt if it ever will.

      Same with lightning, lightning rods are a thing, so maybe that? Idk what would be dmged if an entire lightning passes thru your house in a wire or not, like electromagnetic fields are a thing.

        I suppose remote backup is the only option for something that destroys everything in the area, but raid is essential anyway.

          raid is essential anyway

          Why? If there are offsite backups that can be restored in an acceptable time frame, what’s still the point of RAID?
