Hi,
I might have to replace my home server due to a hardware failure. It's
a Tranquil PC unit which I chose because it has accessible disk bays and
runs pretty quietly. I have been looking at a few options online but
most microservers are sold on their size rather than noise. However, NAS
devices look like a good option but I'm not sure which of them either
run Linux or can be easily hacked to do so.
The requirements are:
1) Low power. As low as possible, ideally 20-30W.
2) Quiet. Ideally fanless.
3) SSH access for remote rsync backups.
4) 3TB storage. Ideally I would be able to reuse the 4 existing data
1TB disks I have in a software RAID5 configuration.
5) Can run Ubuntu or Debian.
Would be nice:
6) Small.
7) USB connection for printer.
I've looked at Synology and ReadyNAS products but any recommendations
would be gratefully received.
Thanks,
Tony
