Hello,
I would like to setup a dirty cheap NAS for my local network. I want to spend near the price of no money. I have multiple 3.5’ HDD sata drives and I want to access them from my network. I could place them in my desktop, but it is not on 24/7, and power usage would be too high for this use case. I have RPI Zero W, Radxa Zero 1 (although no idea how am I supposed to put firmware in this thing), and Odroid C2.
What are my options?
3D print clamps for a tower of disks, use USB to SATA and build a Frankenstein NAS.
Better option Wyse 5070 Extended (100€) with LSI 8e (50€) used SAS controller to connect maximum of 8 disks and 3d printed tower. Something like https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2939751
