Any of y'all have a NAS? What's your setup? (self.technology)

Curious what you've got installed on it. What do you use a lot but took awhile to find? What do you recommend?

That's literally the bookmark I still have from 3 years ago - and it looks like they kept it updated! Enjoy!

You're amazing! Thank you! Now to find a Pi 4 that's actually in stock. Any recommendations on RAM version?

I doubt it's very intensive if you're only doing a single drive NAS - but I did get the Pi4 with 4 GB. It's been running the pi-hole and network drive nonstop for 2 years, no issues. and of course - enjoy!

Excellent. It's been a minute, probably 3 years since I bought a Pi, time to get searching. Thanks again and have a great day.
