Is it possible to create a file server at home?

Question

NAS

Hello.
I’m interested in the question, is it possible to assemble a computer at home, using it as a server for storing files, followed by distribution in the form of links on the site, what kind of hardware is needed for this , will it pull all NAS devices, or is it still better to assemble it yourself? The channel at home is 100Mbps, the site is small, about 1000 hours a day, online is always somewhere around 50-80 people. I know that you can rent a server with 1trb. disk, but still want to try at home.

Answer 1

The term NAS is a general term. You need your NAS model.

Answer 2

The channel may pull it out, but will it pull us out??
And can you provide sufficient uptime at home?

Answer 3

After the provider notices abnormally high outgoing traffic, they will definitely present something to you (in the sense of the type of claim or demand to switch to a tariff for legal entities), read the contract again with the home provider.

Answer 4

I don’t have a NAS, I’m just wondering if they will be extended or not, I’m interested in the provider’s account, I distribute torrents, for the last 31 days 752GB came out, and it always comes out about 500-700 gigabytes per month, the speed does not drop, I didn’t receive any complaints, the Kyivstar operator, but what will happen when the traffic, for example, exceeds 2trb, I don’t know, there is nothing in the contract about this.

Answer 5

Here it is necessary not to think about iron, but about the criminal code. There have already been courts in such cases, the prospects are quite unambiguous.
