  • Honestly, I used to seek out Linux for beginners, Linux for dummies, and Linux+ guides. It’s all relatively similar information. The first two may start a little lower and the Linux+ guide should dig a bit deeper.

    Do web searches for terms that you don’t understand, and feel free to ask when you have conflicting information. We love to answer questions where you already tried solving it yourself and bicker about the answer.

  • There appears to be many wireless options available. While there is no off the shelf option available, you may be able to automate connecting to the Wi-Fi of the cam and pulling the files from a Windows share. From there, you could put the files on a share for a service like photoprism.

    If the only way up interface with it is through an app, and you don’t have an old smartphone to run the app, then you could consider running an android emulator.

  • I think I might have one I can’t use. Might be 2 TB.

    I bought it as an experiment to use with my NAS, but my SAS card is running in SATA mode and won’t recognize it with an adapter.

    If you or someone wants to have me ship it to you (you pay postage and send me the pdf for the label) PM me.

  • Look, if you were looking to have more options handed to you, you are in the right place!

    TrueNAS is a great diy option. I have it running on an old box of mine. The one real caveat is that you will need enough hard drive slots (don’t just hang them unless you go full SSD), 4+ SATA ports or add in a SAS card, enough PSU to handle all your drives, and enough memory.

    I am running one SAS card and 16 GB of DDR 3. Since the attached image I have taken pics of the serial numbers and labeled the drives.
