Years ago I came across filecoin/sia decentralized data storage and I started trying them but then I stopped due to lack of time. Some days ago I’ve heard in a podcast about a kind of NAS that does kinda the same thing: it spreads chunks of data across other devices owned by other users.
Is there a service that does this but with your own hardware or, even better, something open source where you can have X GB as far as you share the same amount of space plus something extra?
It would be great for backup.
It’s the redundancy. So a file exists at 4.2 hosts on average. The minimum is 3, which is something you set yourself.
Got it, thanks!
