Can someone explain the basics to starting a server from an old pc?
I would like to start that I have pretty (almost none) limited knowledge about computers.
What I do know is I want a server/Nas system??I want something secure and private that's one of the main goals. I want something to store my data, my photos, my documents, host my own movie player of some sort because I have a bunch of dvds and CDs I want to use. But my main thing is I want to be able to access it from my phone. I got too excited and I already bought the domain I wanted. But now I'm stuck because I have my dell optiplex 3060 running on ubantu. It's got 1tb SSD installed already. But now I'm kinda stuck. Any pointers, videos, really anything would be helpful because I really want to get this started I'm just unsure what to do from here.
Also I think I could find the answer I'm just really lost with all the separate pieces I have and have no idea how to fit them together.
