Set up personal network disk with nextcloud

The perfect network disk in my mind should be like this ： Large capacity without speed limit 、 It's cheap 、 Safe and reliable 、 The usage scenario is unlimited . Some foreign brands can meet the above requirements at the same time , Such as Dropbox、Google Drive、Microsoft OneDrive、MEGA etc. , Due to the suppression and blockade of China's science and technology by the United States . These network disks are not easy to use normally . And domestic network disk is not easy to use , So I want to have a good online disk experience , You need to do it yourself .

Today's article mainly talks about how to install Nextcloud Set up a personal network disk in the LAN . The next few articles will introduce Nextcloud Some configuration problems of .

Nextcloud Is an open source network disk program , Its official website address is ：https://nextcloud.com/ The official server-side 、 Desktop and mobile . After a period of use , There are still some small problems on its desktop and mobile terminals . The web side is doing better , Basically, there is no problem .

Before setting up the network disk, you must first prepare the hardware . Here I choose a second-hand Mini host on Taobao . The motherboard of this machine is a non-standard motherboard removed from the miner ,CPU by AMD A6 3420M, Memory 4GB, Hard disk is 32GB NVME solid state .

There are two on the motherboard sata Interface , Two hard disks can be connected externally . Because the chassis is small , Threading will be troublesome . I asked my friend to help me cut off two iron bars on the side of the chassis , Convenient connection of hard disk cable . The external hard disk in the picture was removed from a mobile hard disk with a broken interface . I haven't used this mobile hard disk several times , Just because SATA turn USB The conversion head of is broken , I have been idle for a long time , Now it can be used as a storage disk .

The front of the chassis has 4 individual USB Interface , There are two USB3.0 Interface and two USB2.0 Interface . stay USB There are two gigabit network ports above the interface .USB Next to the interface is 12 V power interface . Power button and HDMI The interface is on the side .

The whole machine cost me 350 A big ocean , When I bought it, I preinstalled the aikuai soft routing system . After receiving the goods , I immediately painted it Ubuntu 20.04.

install Nextcloud There are many ways . You can manually install and configure each package it needs , You can also use it directly Snap Package management system one click installation , You can also use docker To install .

I don't recommend manual installation here , It's too troublesome . Recommended snap Install or docker install .

adopt snap Installation requires only one line of command ：sudo snap install nextcloud

Use snap There is a very big problem with the installation ,snap In the environment Nextcloud What is used Apache、PHP、MySQL、redis Etc. cannot be configured , That is, all environments are pre configured by developers and cannot be changed by users . In this way, if you encounter some problems that need to modify the configuration , There is no solution .

therefore snap How to install , Suitable for people who don't want to toss , Students who can use it can use . This is also the easiest way to upgrade . If there's a new version , Directly through snap You can upgrade .
