Make NAS Driver by Raspberry Pi

Once your pi boots up, you can login using “pi” and “raspberry” and then follow these steps to set it up as a NAS:

Update apt-get and install NTFS-3g

```
sudo apt-get update
```
```
sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
```

Find out what path your external drive is located at (ex. /dev/sda1).
- ```
sudo apt-get update
```

Mount the external drive to the media folder and then make a shared folder within it.

```
sudo mkdir /media/NASDrive
```

sudo mount -t auto /dev/sda1 /media/NASDrive

```
sudo mkdir /media/NASDrive/shared
```

Install the Samba software.
- ```
sudo apt-get install samba-common-bin
```

Edit the Samba config file.

```
sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf
```
Under the “Authentication” header, remove the hash (#) before
```
security = user
```
Under the “Share Definitions” header, change
```
read only = yes
```
to
```
read only = yes
```

At the bottom of the page add:

[Shared]
comment = Shared Folder
path = /media/NASDrive/shared
valid users = @users
force group = users
create mask = 0660
directory mask = 0771
read only = no

Restart Samba
- ```
sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
```

Add a new user to linux

sudo useradd [enter new user here] -m -G

Create a new password:
```
sudo passwd [enter new users name]
```

Add new user to Samba

sudo smbpasswd -a [enter new users name]

USING OPEN MEDIA VAULT

Before we dive into the nerdy method of setting up a NAS on a Raspberry Pi, a super simple alternative is to use Open Media Vault. Open Media Vault is a distribution intended to make it super simple to set up and manage your own NAS.

If you want to give it a try yourself, here are the dead easy steps for setting it up:

Download the most recent OpenMediaVault Raspberry Pi Image (using the button above)
Burn it to an SD card (you can use this guide if you don’t know how)
Plug it into your Raspberry Pi along with a monitor, network cable and power.
When it boots up, the screen will give you your IP Address along with instructions on how to log in.
On a separate computer, open up a browser and type in your Pi’s IP address. On the resulting page, login using the provided credentials (default should be admin and openmediavault).
Use the options provided to set up your networking share and add and manage users!
