Comment on Don't throw away your old PC—it makes a better NAS than anything you can buy

Either you already have drives and could use them in a new NAS or you would have to buy them regardless and shouldn’t include them in the NAS price.

8 drives could go into most computers I think. Even 6 drive NAS can be quite expensive.

That’s not a NAS, that’s a whole-ass PC, though with only 8gb RAM.
