A pre-installed, compact open-source storage solution built on the popular Raspberry Pi 5 board and utilizing Open Media Vault and Nextcloud software. It offers low energy consumption and flexible customization options to meet your needs. It enables automatic centralized data backups from your devices, provides a unified space for viewing photos and videos, and offers advanced features such as a home wiki, shared calendar, office tools, and many other optional extensions.
This version includes a 240 GB SSD drive in position SSD1, where the operating system, Open Media Vault, and NextCloud are installed. It also contains 2x2TB SSD drives labeled diskA and diskB. All files from Nextcloud are directed to diskA, which are archived nightly to diskB using rsync. Everything is pre-configured to fit our tutorial.



Why did we choose SSD?
With the recent affordability of SSDs, the difference compared to HDDs is no longer as significant. SSDs offer several key advantages:
- Significantly faster access times - especially noticeable when copying many small files such as photos, work, or personal documents.
- Higher read/write speeds compared to HDDs - limited mainly by the bandwidth of a home/business network (typically 1 Gbps, or about 125 MB/s), or by WiFi speed.
- Silent, vibration-free, with no moving parts.
- Minimal energy consumption.
