Title: Upcycling an Old Mining Rig into a Home Server: A Step-by-Step Guide

Hey guys, was looking to upgrade my home's network setup and thought why not repurpose an old mining rig I've got lying around? Got a question though - I've got dual GPUs, 6 GB RAM, and a Ryzen 5 1600, all still decent specs. What would be the best way to convert this into a server that can handle some data storage and possibly some NAS duties?

"Hey OP, that's a solid idea! I've done something similar with my old GTX 1060 - I turned it into a Plex server and it's been running smoothly for months now. What kind of specs did your old rig have, OP?"
