    Tiny10 anyone?


    Has anyone tried Tiny10?

    I need to set up a basic network file server to hold 3d assets for other desktops to access. I have an ideal PC for that in a mini compact HP

    I could just keep what I have because it was in that use before but would prefer to consider an update. But the PC would simply not accept Win10 full as it's specs are too limited. ( see below )

    I was thinking Tiny10 because of it's lack of MS Bloat and features I simply have no use for in this application. The HDD is 1TB so space is not the issue so much as utilization of available hardware.

    I am also open to any other suggestions to make file sharing easier. I know I could use Linux but while Linux has no problem reading NTFS, Window's is not very friendly toward the Linux file system and networking is problematic. [ Wish MS would fix their struggles with Linux ]

    Operating System
    Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1
    CPU
    AMD A8-7600
    Kaveri 28nm Technology
    RAM
    8.00GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 804MHz (11-11-11-28)
    Motherboard
    Hewlett-Packard 225E (P0)
    Graphics
    HP L1506 (1024x768@1Hz)
    ATI Standard VGA Graphics Adapter (HP)
    Storage
    931GB Hitachi HGST HTS SATA Disk Device (SATA )

    Audio

    My NAS is Linux based (TrueNAS Core, which runs on FreeBSD kernel). My Windows 10 and 11 machines have no issues networking with Linux. Also, I see nothing in your specs that would keep it from running Windows 10.

    Agree. For a Server, there is nothing like a Linux. I have once built one for a small office using CentOS

    Tiny10 basically cripples Windows to the point that you have to go back and add stuff to get it to be usable.
