A little computer. A lot of possibilities.
A home server is a computer designed to provide services, storage or applications over your home network.
Instead of relying entirely on external cloud subscriptions, you can host certain services on hardware you control.
Whether you want private photo storage, file backups, game servers, automation or a complete homelab, I can help build a system that fits your needs.
One server. So many uses.
Private photo cloud
Store, organise and access photos from phones and computers, with remote access where supported.
NAS & file storage
Shared storage for files, documents, photos and other important data.
Backup systems

Discord bot hosting
Run compatible Discord bots from your own home server without keeping your main PC on.
Network-wide ad blocking
Host a DNS-based ad-blocking service for compatible devices across your home network.

Build a personal testing environment for containers, virtual machines and self-hosted applications.

Server questions.
Can I access my files away from home? +
Yes, with the right software and a secure remote-access configuration. Availability depends on your network and internet connection.
Can I use old computer hardware? +
Often, yes. Some older desktops, mini PCs and laptops can be repurposed as home servers, depending on their condition and capabilities.
Can you set up my own photo cloud? +
Yes. I can help configure a self-hosted photo system with supported automatic uploads and remote access.
Does a home server replace cloud backup? +
Not by itself. A home server needs a proper backup plan, ideally including a separate off-site copy of important data.
Can it stay on all day and night? +
Yes, suitable equipment can run continuously, provided it has reliable power, cooling and maintenance.
Can I add more storage later? +
Often, yes. I can help plan the build around future drive, memory or hardware upgrades.
READY TO SELF-HOST?
