I mean, you connect a phone to a USB-C Hub and the phone can gets power and the SDD /hard drives can get plugged into the USB hub, but I was wondering if there’s any apps that can sort of open up your phone’s to the internet so that you can access the files (via the phone) from another location?

I know its probably gonna be slow, but is it possible? Maybe “NAS” is the wrong term for it, I’m thinking like a personal “Cloud Drive” except I control the hardware.

    Copyparty has been great for me for the less than a week or so I’ve used it. I copied a 44.8gb virtual machine there to get it to another machine earlier tonight just because I wanted to test a larger file. Came down on the other machine and worked fine. (Clearly this would have been easier to do by just making one folder shared on the receiving device or using a flash drive, but I was curious.
