Using Amahi

Postby sublevel4 » Thu Dec 04, 2014 2:15 pm

when i found Amahi i was looking for a NAS solution. I am fairly technical and my main goal is to have a place to store files that has some type of redundancy. I was looking into a NAS that was 3 1TB drive in a RAID 5. I have come into and older pc (Pentium 4) and i have the drives to put into it. I don't need to hot swap but i would like to be able to recover from a drive dying. I have 2 macs, 1 windows machine, phones and ipads that access the network. This would be mostly for file storage, video library, and backups from the laptops. It seems like the kinds of things Amahi can do, is it? Can it do this out of the box?

Thanks for the help.

For the most part yes.

Adding drives and setting up Greyhole, depending on your choices may require some configuration. It can be done via command line (adding drives) for most and some via web UI if you add the Greyhole UI application.
