I am thinking of building an ultra budget NAS. I am planning on getting a used computer and slapping some hard drives in it.
The used market in my area has many systems with 2gb RAM core2duo systems for around 50 USD(converted),
other options are i3/i5 1st to 4th gen gen systems with 4gb RAM systems for around 100USD.
Are the synology NAS's worth their cost?
Is the core2duo enough for a basic streaming NAS?
If no, then, Is it enough for just file storage atleast?
Will there be any issues in running old hardware 24*7 on a NAS?
