The problem is: capitalism.

I totally agree with you, but the issue is that often times it's hard to justify a delay when you're working with publishers or external investors. What I find unhealthy in the industry is that, oftentimes, companies simply can't afford to delay the release because they've signed documents that lock in that date, or that could affect the companies income during the delay. This obviously isn't universal, but it's something that I've seen first-hand, having worked in the videogames industry.

This, together with good cycling infrastructure, seems like a great way to transition people away from cars. I wish this was implemented in more cities. Cycling to work everyday has certainly improved my life. I wish many other could realize the same, though, as I said, it depends on having a solid infrastructure.

Wow! Awesome! You found it on the first try! Well thank you very much! I'm sorry for taking your time.

We have a Miami in Spain!

Thank you, came here for this exact comment.

Wait until you hear about Spanish trains.

So if I understand correctly, you're managing the storage directly within Proxmox, instead of using a VM for that, right? Are the tools good? Does it support ZFS replication, SMB and things like that? Edit: I'll also check the SATA cables, thanks!

Thank you, I might raise the issue there, if I struggle to fix the issue. I didn't know the podcasters, but now I'll try and listen to a few episodes, and maybe I can continue learning. Thank you for the suggestion

I passed the whole raw disk in theory, but I've read that even if you do that, it's still virtualized somehow. But I don't know enough about it, I'm just basing this on the research I've done so far. About skipping TrueNAS, maybe you're right, but if I also want to set up SMB shares? Is there a tool or something that makes it easy for someone with limited experience? It would also need to handle replication of data, and the advantage of ZFS Replication over using something like rsync, is that you can simply push the delta between snapshots, instead of replacing entire files, or at least that's how I've understood this.

Correct, they're two separate pools, and the stripe one doesn't contain any valuable data.

I'm already running TrueNAS Scale, but I'm unsure about the docker support. I did use TrueCharts and such, but it was very unstable, so I moved away from that.

I see, okay, I'll try out containers then. So far, I've been able to migrate a ZFS Pool without issues, so I'll start migrating them all, create a container that manages NFS and see if the existing Docker VM picks up the NFS shares successfully. Thank you for going in-depth and explaining everything to me. I've learnt a lot!

You're right, I misunderstood. I understand now, thank you for replying with detail. I'm currently still not over my "I like Hypervisors now" phase. If I go back to bare metal, I will most probably use the setup you described. Still, thank you very much, and I'm keeping this thread for future reference.

You're right, their own app catalogue is stable, but I like trying out new docker apps constantly, and I feel like I'm limitted in my options if I only use their catalogue. Still, thanks for your replies.

Yes, that's why I've posted this question, and I immediately powered the entire NAS off, as to avoid any damage. It's currently still powered off, until I find the best way to move forward. What I'm afraid of is that if I try to import the pools that were managed by the TrueNAS VM into a bare metal TrueNAS install, or Proxmox, that it won't work correctly, or that I could lose data.

Thank you very much for the info. In the case of Raid Cards that can be flashed, is there something I need to look out for, besides the speed? Only HDDs will be used, so speed isn't a priority.

Yeah, actually I had that setup for a brief amount of time, but I had issues because my system has too little RAM, and TrueNAS and Docker were constantly fighting over RAM, and the system hang frequently. For some mindboggling reason, if I ran TrueNAS and a Docker VM separately on Proxmox, were I could manually specify allowed RAM, everything worked perfectly fine, even though the available RAM was still very low. If I ever go down this road again, I'll need to buy more RAM sticks.
