Old Mainboard as NAS (lemmy.world)

Has anyone tried to turn an old Mainboard into a NAS/ Raid capable Server using Hard drives? I recently thought about this and now I wanted to know if someone has already tried that.

That would be possible but IMO it would be better to sell that fairly new mainboard. I would use an older machine you have laying around or a Raspberry Pi for that, as you probably don't need the computing power of the FW for it.

I currently using an old pc as a server and I'm not planning to use a framework mainboard for a nas. I just wondered if others already tried such a thing
