I have replaced my home computer setup with a Microsoft surface pro 4 and swimsuit what to do with my old computer and hard drives. I have lots of media files i want to stream from my hard drives onto my surface pro and over the Internet using my phone.
First thing i thought about was using a NAS. But they are very expensive and u don't need any of the fancy features or raid since none of the files are important. I just want easy and universal access to them.
Next i thought about buying a few cheap usb 3.0 external enclosures and getting a wireless router with multiple usb ports. Having a hard time figuring out which to get though and what is the most economical. They seem to all only have one usb port.
Any other methods i should consider?
