Upon first learning of being able to block ads on your home network, I had to jump on this train. But, of course, this wouldn’t be enough. This was the start of my entire journey.

I began with a single pi, then bought a second soon after to have a failover Pi-Hole.

I started with a old 2TB hard drive to use for my SAMBA server but quickly realized how much data I needed. After some time, I upgraded to a 14TB drive and still use this as a second backup.
