(I want to replace the boot drive with an SSD, dump the 900s and get 3 more 3TBs, but that is not in the immediate future)Ĭurrent VMs: 4x Ubuntu Server 20.04 VMs (including current file server), 1x Ubuntu Server 20.04 LXC, 2x Debian 11 VMs, 2x Windows 10 VMs. 2x 900GB SAS & 3x 3TB SATA storage drives passed through to Ubuntu VM (file server). Hardware: Xeon CPU E5-1410 v2 2.80GHz, 32GB RAM, 3x 1 Gigabit Ethernet, 600GB SAS Boot Drive (currently partitioned for Proxmox host and VM storage). What are the downsides to either of these methods? Have you had any issues with either of these? DO you have an alternate option that doesn't include a second machine? The other option is to wipe Proxmox, install TrueNAS bare metal and setup all my VMs inside TrueNAS, but I'm not entirely sold on that since some have mentioned inconsistencies with TrueNAS's VM system (might be outdated info), and I like the idea of having my VM host independent of my file server OS (might also be based on outdated info). On the one hand I am thinking to keep Proxmox as is and just replace the Ubuntu VM with a TrueNAS VM with the drives passed directly through to the VM. ![]() I've been looking at TrueNAS and ZFS and though I'm still uncertain I would like to fully game out the option of possibly switching my file server to TueNAS to utilize ZFS. ![]() I currently have Proxmox setup with a few VMs including an Ubuntu VM that acts as a file server/media host using MergerFS.
