    Commodity hardware & open source software for the win.

    When my Western Digital NAS was never going to get critical security patches, I was so freaking glad to find out that they just used software raid… I threw the HDDs in a Debian server and never looked back.

    It’s certainly nice to have things that are turn-key, but if you can find your way around any OS, just avoid proprietary everything.
