First off, not 100% sure if this is the right place, if not, could you please direct me to the correct place please? Thank you!
So as people may see from my post history, I’m about to get 2.5gbps up and down broadband and I’m thinking about using an old PC to host a cloud storage type situation for me and a few friends on my old PC.
My old PCs specs are as follows:
- PSU - EVGA 750 GQ
- Mobo - Asus Maximus VII Ranger
- CPU - i7-4790k 4GHz
- RAM - 16gb DDR3? Maybe 4 (how do I tell?)
- GPU - GTX 980 Gaming 4G
What I’m wanting to do:
I’m basically wanting to run a self hosted cloud that me and my friends can upload files and backups etc to, much like my own iCloud/Google Drive
But also if possible have a partition? to use as a plex server to stream from wherever I am in the world?
Is all this possible on my hardware? I have a few TBs of SSDs so didn’t mention them as they can be bought etc.
If it is possible, can anyone point me in the right direction of some documentation I can read or some videos I can watch please?
Thanks in advance for your help and advice!
