If so, how was the overall experience? Looks like a much better alternative than completely relying on Google Drive and you can't beat the price (free!)

I just saw nextcloudPi the other day, check it out!

I'm using old hw from pcs, and got a new big NAT HDD.

Thats what i use. One thing to avoid is "DO NOT" update packages via apt otherwise your server stops working over php version mismatch.

I've been using nextcloudPi for a couple of years. Setting it up is pretty easy and quick but it does tend to crash once every couple of months because of updates or messed up dependencies. I don't even bother fixing it most of the time and just do a quick reinstall.
