I use a NAS device at work, but I did not set it up, nor have I ever had to set one up. I am looking into getting a custom system at home for storage and backup but unsure of certain things. I want to try out FreeNAS because of all the awesome things that I have heard, but what I am shooting for is to get me and my wife off of paid cloud storage (MS and Apple). I have read briefly that you can use OwnCloud for private, secure cloud storage. Is this plugin worth looking into for use with FreeNAS as well as Plex Media Server? I am not worried about getting to videos from my NAS, I am just wanting to have a storage platform that I can use for photo/video storage and backup with my mobile devices while we are away. Or I am open to other suggestions?!? I have looked at Synology NAS but I think FreeNAS with a custom system may be the way to go and a little cheaper.
Thanks in advance.
