Archive: https://archive.today/AcpXd From the post: >>Until recently, my family's 90,000+ photos have been hidden away in the depths of my gaming PC's hard drives. Many of the more recent photos were also scattered across our individual iCloud accounts, making them hard to find and access. A failing backup drive on my PC (thanks S.M.A.R.T.) motivated me to rethink my photo and video storage solution. I needed something that backed up all my family's photos (including those from our phones) and made it possible for everyone, including my kids, to easily access them. The rest of this post walks through my process of converting my gaming PC to a Network Attached Storage (NAS) server, and the series of software and scripts I use to make my photos easy to access by anyone in my family.
