Samba Server

[rahlquist]

Making the argument that say I needed a small samba based NAS, say 4tb and say we use the same drive and headless config between an X86 and SBC, the savings, is likely going to be maybe $50-75 after you build comparably reliable systems. 

To be honest: For valuable data you want to use filesystems that can ensure data integrity (btrfs or ZFS) and then you need also ECC RAM. 

I've never had data valuable enough to bother with either ZFS or ECC just good backcups. Lets face it probably the majority that want to use pine for a NAS are looking for it to serve their movies they downloaded
