It looks like you’re trying to SSH into your tower to use it as a NAS, but you're running into connection issues. When you try ssh pi@fulatower, the system can’t find that hostname, which usually means your computer can’t resolve that name to an IP address. This could be because the hostname isn’t registered on your network or DNS, or because mDNS (used by .local names) isn’t working. When you try connecting directly to the IP with ssh pi@192.168.1.150, the error “connection timed out” means your computer tried reaching that IP address but got no response—likely because SSH isn’t running on that device, the device is offline, or the firewall is blocking port 22. To fix it, make sure your tower is turned on, connected to the network, and has the SSH service running. If you’re using Raspberry Pi OS or Linux on that tower, try plugging in a monitor and enabling SSH manually, or check if the IP address changed by logging into your router. You can also use a network scanner like Angry IP Scanner to help find the correct IP.
