[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 3350304, member: 29706"] Thanks for the vote of confidence. I will fully admit there is a lot I don't know. I am by no means a programmer but hardware has always been something I have been good with. I honestly wish more people would take me up on setting up a server of their own for backups and things of that nature. It only takes losing a drive completely once to really appreciate having something that can survive multiple drive failures. Right now I have to start figuring out docker since a few things I have running use it and I only have enough of a grasp to get it running and certain basics but beyond that I am lost, LOL. I was able to get a caching system setup on it so that I can update certain things and the next time I need to do it rather than pulling the stuff directly from Steam, Blizzard or Microsoft it comes from my server though. But I also am not sure that if I update the container all the previously downloaded stuff will stay intact or be lost to the update void. [/QUOTE]
