Description:
Turning an old Router into a NAS Storage is easier than you might think. If you router has a USB port and it can run OpenWRT then all you have to do is hook that USB hard disk up to your router and install Samba on it. In 10 minutes you will have a cheap DIY NAS Network attached storage - your own file server for your home Network built from an old router with OpenWrt and Samba! OpenWRT can be easily used with Samba. You need a router with OpenWRT and can install Samba from the luci menu. Please bear in mind that while this is a cheap DIY NAS, an old router is not sized for heavy load. This is rather a storage solution for a home network where you exchange files from time to time. Samba is a linux software that can provide a windows file server. The latest version is Samba4, but you can install Version 3.6 on OpenWRT if you wanted to.
