  If the server is going to serve them in a useful way, they need te be decrypted. Pretty inconvenient to decrypt every file before use.

    I find that decrypting locally is piss-easy, you only have to do it once on mounting the drive. Maybe not if you use shitty devices like smart TVs.

      You mean decrypting on the client, or full disk encryption on the server?

        Decrypting on the client. Create an encrypted container on the server (e.g. with gocryptfs), mount the drive on the client, decrypt the container and mount the decrypted container as a drive.
