Lol why is it always the monitor to get beat. It only has one job, just to show you what the computer is outputting lol

You’re correct, with a bit more know how and knowledge it’s completely doable. Quick question maybe, once you create a pool and are utilizing it, are you able to add/remove drives as needed or does that require additional work to be completed? I am under the impression that the pools can be created with a variety of drives but making any physical adjustments are a bit of trouble.

However, I do appreciate you posting about this, maybe it’ll help someone else that might be browsing through here. Thank you.

Best of luck jjlinux. I hope you have a ton of fun getting your system up and running.

Use either proxmox or unraid. Don’t stack.

They are both great in their own respects but you need to choose what works for you and your hardware.

Up until recently I liked unraid due to being able to use multiple disks with different capacities. You don’t really have that freedom with proxmox.
