Using Hex OS to share files remotely?


Question

Posted

Hello.  I am wondering if HexOS is the right solution for an astronomy club I am in.  We have an observatory with a telescope.  When running it takes a 120MB photo (of a galaxy, nebula, star cluster etc.) every 1-5 minutes.  We also will be taking high resolution video of planets and the Sun.  We typically deal with many GB of data per night and it quickly adds up to TB of data after a few weeks.  
 

What the club wants to do is send all of this data to a NAS in our headquarters building which is about 80 miles from the observatory.  And then set up user accounts so that club members can log in and download the data.  
 

Would a HexOS NAS solution be good for a use case like this?

Hexos should do fine for your use case. 

You would want to install some things like tailscals to allow remote access to your server.

Just make sure your Internet speeds at the observatory is good enough for a 120mb upload every minute. 

I don't get symmetrical upload from my Internet service provider so i no doubt would have too slow Internet despite paying for 1gb download.
