I want to host about 2 TBs for start, but may upgrade in the future. raspberry pi 4 is nice, but I think it is more expensive option in terms of hardware. But probably less in the long run.

Thanks! I want to also ask, what characteristics should the seedbox have? Any reccomendations?

Sorry, can you explain the first paragraph in more simple terms? Do you mean installing OpenVPN/Wireguard on the server at my home and connect it to my computer?

Probably overkill, but AstrillVPN is the one I have been using for the past several years and it never failed me.

Hey, thanks for the reccomendation! I use Astrill VPN that has several protocols?(not sure about that), including both OpenVPN and Wireguard, it also has StealthVPN and OpenWeb. Any reccomendations on what exactly to use?

Hello!

I'm currently based in EU but am planning to go to eastern europe contry to visit my familiy and vacation. I always wanted to seed 24/7 but the electricity bills, plus many other stuff doesn't allow me to host a server here.

I'm thinking to during my time in that country to build a small compact seeder server. Any reccomendations? I'm planning as to not use VPN on the server as I don't think it will be needed.

My plan is to use an old computer with about 10 tbs of storage attached to it. All parts will be used as to not blow my budget.

Any reccomendations as how should I safely access that server and through what programm?(preferably free or non subscribtion based)?

Also any critique of the idea or any other reccomendations for the project?
