I am looking for a good tutorial that explains how I can turn my older Mac mini into a NAS. I need something that’s easy to understand -ELI5 kind of style please. Long time Apple user but that seems daunting. Any ideas where to find some info?!

Ugh. I guess I abandon that project.
Hey man don’t give up! Well maybe give up on using the mac mini - i’ve never used one but if it’s going to be a pain to install linux go grab something cheap on eBay or FB Marketplace if that’s a thing in your area. I recently bought a cheap dell optiplex (I think?) on marketplace for like, ~$25? Not sure what your use case is, but if you don’t need a super fast nas, most cheap desktop machines on your local buy/swap community purchase place will do the job just fine. Don’t let the mac mini be what holds ya back!
I’ll have to reconsider what I want. I thought the Mac mini would be just a good use for it and I already have it.
Get a dell or hp sff business pc off ebay for like 150 bucks. Great little machines to play with linux
