On the go it's not easy to manage a lot of photographs, contracts, model releases and more. There was a solution called Gnarbox but it went belly up. This project aims to show you how to use a Raspberry Pi 4 and 5 as an network accessable mobile NAS with a monitor, a card reader and a storage device to get the same thing you would with the now dead Gnarbox. + +### Why is it being made? +I have G.A.S. (Gear Acquisition Syndrome) of the highest order but I was too late and didn´t have the money for the Gnarbox, now I have a reason to buy myself a new RPI5 and accessiries to make this project. + +### The plan +This repo will hold the parts that make the project whole: + +* The shopping list for each setup with links (no affiliation) +* The 3D models to print a case +* The install script to set up all manner of packages and config files for a default install +* The webUI that will be hosted on the ByteBox itself accessible over Wifi and Ethernet + +### Who are you? +Just a guy with G.A.S. \ No newline at end of file
