I tried the NextcloudPi image and I was not quite happy with the performance. It could be because the image is based on an older build from ayufan (0.6.4 IIRC) or because of a combination of other things - I do not know, not an expert.
In any case, I flashed uboot to SPI and Armbian (because of a slightly higher default SOC and RAM freq) to my HDD.
Then I basically followed this tutorial and adjusted where necessary. The one thing the tutorial is missing is enabling cache - which I highly recommend you do once the installation is done. The entire setup took me 30 min flat, including port-forwarding, installing the apps I wanted, etc.,
Its now been running for 3 weeks with occasional heavy load and I've not had any issues with it. I also had no issues with installing the app to mount my NAS as a folder, using Nextcloud Talk (is that what its called ?) with family and fetching/ uploading things from my phone as well as sharing them online.
I think the NextcloudPi project is amazing, but I suggest you give this a try until the performance and other issues get sorted.
Thank you very much for your kind help.
In the past, I have already installed Nextcloud on an mini computer. However, as I am not so expert, I have made a few mistakes during the setup, and this is why I prefer and trust more the NextcloudPi image than myself ^^ (just download > Flash > answer the wizard > Done, wonderful !).
So I will wait (I hope not wait so long) until NachoParker come back, it seems he is not available since a few days, I have to be patient.
