Guide to build a server

[coolshano]

Guys, I am hoping to set up a server at home, just need for file sharing and storage purpose, any ideas on how I can do this.

Requirements :
- Should be accessed via WIFI( will be accessed by 2 or 3 PC's)
- Optionally should be accessed via mobiles and tabs.

Do u know the specs and OS and the prices?

whatta stupid idea

 

[thilina91]

Make a NAS with RAID 5.
Install FreeNAS as the OS. (Maybe on a SSD)
Install a FTP server on it.
Hook it on to a WiFi router.

Was hoping to do it at home. But no need of one now.

Check out youtube for tutorials.

if you don't have experience on RAID, OS configurations etc, best thing to do is buy a NAS.
But good ones are not cheap.
what's your budget?

Quite sure that readily available NAS servers are much more expensive than building one.
But yeah, buying one will simplify things quite heavily.
