  Planning on building a NAS with FSF approved hardware

  Have you done research on that? QNAP and Synology seem to be the NAS kings but are closed source and I don’t know any opensource alternatives.

  When I eventually need to upgrade from the P50 I’ll prob build an FSF approved desktop machine as I’ve found I pretty much only use it at my desk

  Have you considered a linux shop or do you plan on getting all the components and building it yourself?

    I’ll be using the motherboard at the link below for the NAS. The desktop build is a few years off. I don’t really game (other than a bit of SuperTux Kart every now and then) and just run a few VMs which the P50 is more than capable of doing at the moment. store.vikings.net/en/d16ryf

      Wow, that is not a cheap mainboard 😮 Costs as much as some mid-range laptops
