Hello,

I would like to setup a dirty cheap NAS for my local network. I want to spend near the price of no money. I have multiple 3.5’ HDD sata drives and I want to access them from my network. I could place them in my desktop, but it is not on 24/7, and power usage would be too high for this use case. I have RPI Zero W, Radxa Zero 1 (although no idea how am I supposed to put firmware in this thing), and Odroid C2.

What are my options?

    What would be examples of this? I always see small, old and overpriced. So I do what OP does. Plug them into my proxmox server or desktop.

      Have you tried using a USB drive bay station with proxmox before?

      I’m debating getting a 5 bay station, plugging it into my proxmox and passing the USB through to an OMV VM but I’m not sure if that will work.
