As the title states, how would you set it up? I’ve got an HP EliteDesk G5, what are the strengths and weaknesses of either:

  • ProxMox with one VM running TrueNAS and another VM running Nextcloud
  • TrueNAS on bare metal with Nextcloud running in docker
  • Some other setup

I’d like to be able to easily expand and backup the storage available to Nextcloud as needed and I’d also like the ability to add additional VMs/containers/services as needed

    That’s where I’m at now. Same kind of issue as OP. Wanting more out of my bare metal!

    • Possibly linux

      Proxmox VMs shouldn’t have much of a performance penalty compared to bare metal. (Assuming you have virtualization and similar extensions enabled)
