im not a IT-person. I wanted to have a NAS for a long time, and wanted to build it on my own since i hated propitary systems. I already lost a lot of data and its time get prepared.
I set up a testmachine. I'm wondering if Hex OS is the right solution for me. Maybe u can answer my questions directly or give me hint where to look for answers.
1. Does the system has to run 24/7 or can i make a routine for automatically sync data during a certain period, e.g. 2 every Sunday? With no manual interaction?
2. Can i automatically backup the data from the nas system to an external drive? Think its called cold backup.
3. May be im dumb but how to add the storage or folders on a normal machine. I tried to find its via IP etc. but i can't find anything to connect to, besides the deck. Is it too simple or am im missing background. Im very confused, since the "usual" methods of adding network storage doesnt work for me, im sure it is me.
4. Since its a testmachine, how to migrate to a new system with new hard drives?
