How to build a personal web server with NAS

[rsibu]

Hello everybody, I want to build a personal web server to assemble applications that must run 24 / 7, the most viable solution I see is a NAS server (I want to buy the Linksys NSLU2 Network Storage Link for USB 2.0 Drives), the question is You can do this?, describe the equipment that I need? or equipment would be ideal? wish to purchase an economic team to try, thank you very much for the help, greetings

Yes, but my understanding is they stopped selling the NSLU2. Should you find one you next question is which linux distro to install, I've seen a lot of very lite file share specific ones out there. The ultimate question you need to ask yourself, is how slow of a file transfer do you want, USB is going to be very slow depending on what you're doing. You're better off looking at the NAS solutions out there.
