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.

    What would be super cool is to remove back cover, cut out a hole, and put a heat sink on some of the components, literally just buy the cooling stuff for raspberry Pi. Hot rod phone NAS!

      Dont forget the speed lines, flames and arbitrary number for the extra horsepower!

      in all seriousness though the heatsink could attach directly to the backplate with thermal cement. since alot of phones are designed to disapate heat from there, great idea!
