Hi! all,

Thought putting an old, retired system to good use would be better than
letting it gather dust in a closet.  And by old, I mean OOOOOLD! I
built it 13 years ago.  However, it's been upgraded many times since,
and was still my main box running Stretch until last year. Its current
specs: ASRock A770DE+ AM3 MB, AMD Phenom II x4 @ 3.0 GHZ, 8GB DDR2 RAM
(max 16GB), 6 - SATA II & 1 - IDE connections, USB2.0.

The problem I've run into is finding a NAS OS to run on it.  They all
seem to require UEFI. which this MB does not support.  (I said it was
old.)  However, in my search I did come across OpenMediaVault which is
a simple, lightweight NAS OS based on Debian Jessie that will work with
either MBR or UEFI.  One nice feature OMV has is it can be installed as
a service on top of any Debian OS.  So, I can use something more
contemporary and still supported.

Anyone currently using OpenMediaVault, or have recommendations for
another package, or advice, in general, on homebuilt NAS?

My plan is to use it for backups, Dropbox-like storage, and possibly
home media server.

Thanks

B
