ArgentoNAS

ArgentoNAS is my NAS server deployed in my parents place.

Hardware

I'm looking at a humble desktop PC and starting out with a small NVME SSD for OS and 2x4TB HDDs for storage. I might expand at some point in the future.

I made this hardware selection in Neobyte: www.neobyte.es/configurador-pc?conf=1af724d758b67

Or this alternative in PCComponentes: https://www.pccomponentes.com/configurador/A1A888766

OS

I'm gonna use TrueNAS just because it looks solid and is what apparently everyone out there is using.

Videos

Here are some good videos explaining interesting stuff:
