  • I want to set up a basic file storage/sharing cloud that I can use with my family (store files, photos, if possible, sync calendars). I have a few ideas in mind: owncloud.org, syncthing.net, nextcloud.com, and seafile.com, but I wonder which SBC to use? I could always get a RPi and attach a USB drive, but that's probably slow, something with SATA/eSATA connection or usb-c would make more sense. I have 150mbps (up/down) connection, so the speed shouldn't be an issue.

  • Seafile

    High performance file syncing and sharing, with also Markdown WYSIWYG editing, Wiki, file label and other knowledge management features.
