A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Right now my home server consists of a thinkcentre tiny and a single 6tb usb3 external drive.

The goal is to eventually build out a nas, but that's not in my budget at the moment.

Is there some kind of external device I can put multiple 3.5inch drives, has plenty of bandwidth for said drives, and routes through either usb3 or C and can potentially allow me to have a raid (or raid similar) setup for redundancy for the data?
