A couple months ago a friend of mine gave me his TERRAMASTER D4-300 drive enclosure, I was thinking about getting a SBC / mini pc, or something similar and turning it into a jankie DIY NAS.

The hardware I currently have for the project is, 4TB HDD × 4 and the drive enclosure

My use case is pretty simple I just want mass networked bulk storage, with basic resilience In case of loss of a single drive.

But I have a couple of questions about this Idea I've been having, befor I do this.

  1. I want to do this on a bit of a tight budget, so I would like some hardware suggestions.
  2. Is it actually going to work and be reasonably reliable?
  3. And any other thoughts or ideas would be very much appreciated?
