Already ordered 12pcs 16GB modules ;)

A A really great help, thank you very much!

Thank you very much!

...but my question is still if it is a good scenario to share the same SSD mirror for the host (Proxmox) and for VMs?

No, I'll manage the data transfer via wired network, but we like the DS apps on iOS that is why we sticked to it. This version has 2 bays on the back too.

We had currently working Xpenology unit with 6pcs spinning disks in RAID 5 config, but it is almost full, that is why I bought a server with more bays. We running the PMS on it and have a separated computer for Roon ROCK. I would like to expand the capacity (I've got 6pcs caddies but can buy 8...

I have to and I'll read more about how can I reach volume from Xpenology. Maybe the Proxmox file share is a great solution for us.

I can not argue with you related the HW vs SW RAID topic, I just would like to use the most painless solution as this whole projects aim a family server.

Thanks for your reply! As I mentioned earlier I would not like to use FreeNAS, sticked to Xpenology because it is more (user)friendly. If it isn't necessary would not use SW RAID too as there is a HW controller available.

Thanks for you reply! Why do I have to put it to HBA if I'd like to use it with Xpenology VM? I thought the host (Proxmox) deals with the volume itself and I'll set a mounting point for Xpenology. I've got some experience with FreeNAS and like to use Xpenology instead of it (mobile apps etc).

Thanks for your reply! I'm planning to implement Enterprise grade SSDs for VMs. My question is if it is a good scenario to share the same SSD mirror for the host (Proxmox) and for VMs? Failure of a single drive is acceptable for these data, maybe I'll consider RAID6. This server connects to a...

Are SAS HDDs HW RAID1 array for host and VMs worse / same / better?

Hello There, I searched and read all related configuration topic, but would like to ask a little help too. HP Proilant DL380e Gen8 / 2 x Intel Xeon 8 Core E5-2450L @ 1,8GHz 20MB Cache / 16GB DDR3 RAM / Intel C600 Chipset / 14 x 3,5" HDD bays / P420 RAID Controller with 1GB RAM / 4 x 1GB NIC...
