distributednas turns unused space on your neighbors' machines into a shared, encrypted, self-healing network drive. Every file is split into chunks, encrypted, and replicated across multiple donated nodes — no single machine, and no cloud provider, ever holds a readable copy. Your data never touches the cloud; only small control messages — who's online, what needs replicating — pass through this coordinator.
bash <(curl -s …/nas)
Run this on any machine you want to donate space and bandwidth from.
Pick how much disk to donate — 10 GB minimum — plus bandwidth caps for the day, week, and month, and a hard speed limit if you want one. Nothing is taken that you didn't offer.
Drain your node and the swarm re-replicates your donated chunks elsewhere before you go. Your data leaves the swarm with you — nothing is orphaned, nothing lingers.
Mount the swarm like any other network drive — over SMB on Linux gateways, or WebDAV everywhere else — and use it like local storage.
Every file is replicated N ways across independent nodes, so a handful of machines going offline — including your own — never costs you a file.
