Everything I have seen so far is either very expensive (tape drives), or very tedious (recordable DVD or BlRay) I started building a FreeNas, but the BSD that it runs on would not read the extra SATA card I bought, so I had to buy more and more expensive. Then the motherboard wouldn't boot off the USB. I still have a tall box small pile of drives that I never got to NAS for me. I understand that the latest Ubuntu will do ZFS, perhaps I should put all the pieces back together and see if I can configure an Ubuntu system to act as a NAS server.<div><br></div><div>Mike<br clear="all"><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:12.8px">On 09/01/2016 07:58 AM, Anon Anon wrote:</span><br style="font-size:12.8px"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="font-size:12.8px;margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><br>Get a nas from Fry's electronics.
