Hi, I'm new to NAS and storage servers. I'm looking to get a NAS to store photos and videos I took, and having the ability to access and view them from anywhere.

Right now I have two options on my mind:

Get a Synology NAS, mainly for the ease of use and setup.
Use my old desktop (i7 6700, 32gb ram, gtx 1070), set it up as a Nas with an os like unraid.

My question is, how hard is it to set up a DIY NAS? What's so I need to do? Where do I learn it? Is it worth the hassle and money saving?

I'm pretty good with computers but never did anything like this before.
