CSIG1001 Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 So I have not built my unraid server yet but not sure i want to just yet until i figure out alittle more about the dockers. I was thinking about getting a cheap NAS with built in software i.e. Synology for 200.00 but I am trying to figure out if Unraid can do the following 1. Share files by instantly creating a link for someone to use to download a file off my network 2. Cloud backups such as photos, OS, and view files on the sever from any location Thanks Quote Link to comment
tjb_altf4 Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Nextcloud docker installed on Unraid can do what you want, this can be setup for internal network only (easy setup), or for external availability (a little harder). There are other options, but this is a good one. Quote Link to comment
CSIG1001 Posted November 23, 2018 Author Share Posted November 23, 2018 when you say alittle harder does this mean i am better off getting a NAS that will be easier to setup? Quote Link to comment
CSIG1001 Posted November 23, 2018 Author Share Posted November 23, 2018 ok i watched the video this is perfect for my needs, Quote Link to comment
CSIG1001 Posted November 23, 2018 Author Share Posted November 23, 2018 I picked up a Synology 2 bay for 218j just for cloud stuff, this seems way too difficult and looks like it costs money to setup a domain. i will be using unraid though just for plex , will have 192 tb Quote Link to comment
CSIG1001 Posted November 24, 2018 Author Share Posted November 24, 2018 bump still trying to figure out if this is my only option to setup FTP sharing outside my network? After watching those videos part 1 is easy , part 2 holy cow Quote Link to comment
