Answering your questions in order:
- On mine I use NFS and SMB which covers most possible clients.
- I use an ssh bastion that I expose via Tailscale to connect to mine remotely. So a VPN but it's wireguard based so it's not too intrusive. I have a gig up, though, YMMV.
- My NAS has 28TB of space. I'm still working on backup strategy. So far it just has my Dropbox and some ephemera I don't care about losing on it.
- Regarding other services: I use Dropbox pretty extensively but these days 2TB just isn't very much. Plus it gets cranky because I have more than 500,000 files in it.
This is my personal setup but I think it's a bit different for everyone.
- Tijdreiziger 2y agoWow! What kind of data are you generating that 2TB ‘just isn’t very much’? (Video editing?) All my personal files take up around 10GB in my Google Drive.
- Koffiepoeder 2y agoOne example: If you take picture with a decent camera in raw format, your storage gets filled ridiculously fast. A short travel with a mere 200 pictures can easily be like 25M*200=5G. Another example: if you're doing any kind of AI training (especially picture based), the training materials can easily amount to many terrabytes.

- galkk 2y agoGoogle takeout of my personal pictures from Google photos takes 600gb+ alone. And I'm not avid picture taker (that's the archive since 2000s, I did upload a lot of my old dslr photos to google photos when it was unlimited). I guess if people make more personal videos, they will use more space easily
- Tijdreiziger 2y agoI think we probably have different definitions of ‘not an avid picture taker’ :D
- averageRoyalty 2y agoI'd say so. I take over 500GB of personal photos/videos per year, and I'm not a huge phone user.
- ClumsyPilot 2y agoEven a router can do that these days, GLiNet routers have USB ports and SSH, you can setup such basic stuff Most mid range routers allow SSH, and have decent CPU
- aspyct 2y agoglinet routers are amazing, but their file sharing lacks authentication sadly (well, mine does, at least). So anyone getting access to you network also gets access to your files. It's mostly fine, until one of you devices gets compromised. Then it's not fine at all anymore.
