OUR VISION
There are many examples online of how to setup a Raspberry Pi as a Network Attached Device (NAS) and that’s great if you want to spend the time doing all the work yourself.
We wanted to create was an image to download and copy to an SD card that would “just work” without making any changes. So we did all the hard work for you and created an image for the you to download and use.
We also wanted to provide you with a Cloud storage solution where you know where your Files and Data are stored!
