Search up freenas, a lot more in depth to setup but you learn a lot and you can do mostly everything with it. I have a plex media server for my tvs, a modded minecraft server and a ton of windows smb shares. I bought a 8tb external drive and shucked the drive out and had a ton of 2tbs laying around so I put it all in my old z77 system in the closet.

Edit: You can use a 8GB or more flash drive as the boot drive too so you don't have to waste an entire drive for the 4gb freenas boot files

I was woundering on how to set up a home NAS with my pc I don’t use anymore 

FreeNAS

 

 

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
