Replacing Google Drive

[Klaus Christensen]

In our setup we use Google Drive for our .mp3 files (recordings of our church service), and share them with "Anyone with the link".
I would like to skip Google Drive and host it local.
Can I use HexOS for that?

Afaik at this time there is no easy way to do that with hexos.

It might be better for you to use a prebuilt nas since most have that functionality built in.

Maybe someone else has a better answer for you

Your best bet when using Hexos will be something like Nextcloud. This would be my recommendation but have a look at it.

Also, depending on how many people are trying to download or stream the audio file, make sure your upload speed is fast enough to handle the requests, less likely to be an issue with audio files but very much an issue with video files.

That is a very valid question. Doable without reverse proxy ? Probably with some tinkering and changing Truenas GUI ports. Should you do it? Definitely not.
