QUOTE(bobowyc @ Apr 9 2020, 08:39 PM) Wah. How you set it up so other PC and phones can view the contents? Yes. Just share the folder. You can use Solid Explorer to access it for Android. There are DLNA apps for Windows as well. Got cheap sale for motherboard with at least 6 HDD ports from time to time. This is example https://shopee.com.my/shop/59277182/search?...ection=11643259 Pair it with Ryzen 3 1200 or 2300X. Getting a cheap case with at least 6 HDD is harder these days.

QUOTE(chuah_ph @ Apr 21 2020, 12:00 PM) Thx. Hard disk and storage media also plays a role. I could get 110MB/sec or almost 1Gbps on CAT6 LAN cable.My flash drive or Ext HDD is USB 3.0. Hardly can hit above 10MB if using 2.4Ghz as normally ~5MBps while 5Ghz maybe can hit ~15-20MB (higher if use laptop). I never try LAN yet but as per your info mean even NAS LAN also will not hit >60MBps? Thx |
