I have a shelf with IDE/PATA and SATA drives from 200GB and up, that I have
not had the heart to throw out. Would it be worth the trouble to find an
enclosure and build a NAS out of them? Probably not. The enclosures that
can hold 4-6 drives seem to cost twice what a 4 TB USB-3 archive drive
costs, so a Pi-4, a USB-3 hub, and two of those wrapped up with rubber
bands in a shoebox would be cheaper.
Would anyone like a couple of smaller (say 200 MB) drives for repairing
antique systems that can't handle more than 32 bits worth of space?
