That’s super cool! I’ve been wanting to setup an offsite backup rig at my parents place and using an old phone to run it would be super ideal but I just don’t have any hardware that’s compatible with postmarketOS. Maybe one day ill bite the bullet and just buy a compatible used phone to do it with.

Reminds me of that time I updated my UEFI firmware which automatically re-enabled secure boot which caused my Nvidia driver to fail to load on boot because Nvidia doesn't sign them so I was stuck with the noveau(spelling?) driver which would crash when I tried to log into my DE. What an adventure figuring that out was. Oh, and the cherry on top: updating the firmware didn't fix the initial issue I was troubleshooting.
If I didn't need a large amount of storage I'd totally do this. As it stands it's hard or prohibitively expensive to get 30TB of storage connected to a laptop with reasonable read/write speeds.
Makes me think of the game "Smushi Come Home"
This popped up on my work laptop yesterday. Very annoying.
But it's not ready because insert niche use case that only applies to me and no, I will not seek out open source alternatives to insert closed source software
