Look forward to having a go at it soon.

You can also use external hard drives on the USB ports to extend your storage space even more even when your computer does not have more slots for internal hard drives.

I have watched many NAS implementation videos and to me installing Samba on an Ubuntu Server is much much simpler.

because my bios was so old that it did not have uefi, i had to format another drive i had laying around and put omv on that via the installation, as booting from usb was not an option. on the first boot it showed an ip address like in this video at 4:47 but when I went to the ip address it said that the page could not be found
tried restarting the nas and it now does not show an ip address and this whole time i have not been able to log in, when i try to it basically just refreshes and tells me to put in a login again

[rasbry]

I spent a lot of time exploring this possibility and now I can say with certainty that merging disks in this way does not give any positive result. If I cannot copy large files to the created pool, then this is a useless thing. If one disk becomes full, the system does not transfer files to another disk in this pool. You can merge disks of any size through Software RAID, and only in this case the files will be automatically transferred from one disk to another. All you need to do is create a RAID Stripe. Thank you for your hard work anyway.

Thanks for this video. I use 5 old disks and managed to create shared folder and do a test upload. Can you please explain about the Static ip address? Will it be ok if I use the same numbers you used in the tutorial? 10.11.12.32. Mask.226.255.255.255.0 Gateway:10.11.32.140?

hello everyone, I have a problem in the step where you have to enter the password to access the server at 8:47, the command prop doesn't let me enter the password, and not even from the server. Could I have done something wrong? is it a problem with my computer?.
