I'm wanting to set up a private cloud with my family for archives and backups. The boomer generation is getting old and we're wanting to have some more resilient storage for memories.

Is a raspberry pi the best option these days or are there other solutions I should consider? Compactness is a factor so it can go in flight luggage. I'll be using reclaimed magnetic HDDs from my dad's old business for now.

EDIT: Aiming for ~£50 per unit with a maximum of £100.

@iuvi This is probably decent, but I'm aiming for a cheaper unit. The hard processing will mostly be done on my machine and these will be secondary nodes. So aiming for ~£50 with £100 per unit being the limit
