Merci Vince! :)
Looks like I have to buy a Synology NAS then...
You can use your PC (or any router running Linux) to act as an FTP server mounted on the Freebox hard drive, using fuseftp / curlftpfs.
This sounds good. Is it tricky to set up?

Hello,
As I understood, Scott does not wish to have his PC turned on...

Depends on the device the mount will be done.
From a PC using Linux, that's easy, you just have to install fuse and curlftpfs packages, then set-up the mount in /etc/fstab partition table.
From a router, I don't know.
The problem is that the box will accept ftp connections only from inside, not the remote connections.
Isn't it possible to configure the router so that incoming FTP connections are routed back to the box, and of course either configure the freebox's NAT to forward outside FTP connections to the router, or turn off the freebox' router mode (in this case everything is sent to the router) ?
This would give this route for FTP:
outside => freebox => router => freebox FTP server
I don't know, maybe it can work ?
