    TrueNAS Enterprise, made by iXsystems, sells real SAN.

    Finally, what I was hoping to read! :D I should say Proxmox+True NAS Enterprise=Heaven; 1:1 VMware functions + ZFS huge benefits.

    Luckily, not everyone thinks the way you do.... In fact, the thread is becoming interesting. I repeat... I’ve been using Proxmox in production since 2012, and I’ve also been an Authorized Reseller—since 2013, I believe... you too?

    @ AkUsP o satisfy your curiosity, we are talking about the classic SME baseline: Topology: 1 Single Site, 3 Compute Nodes (HA Cluster), ~30 TB usable capacity. What we want to accomplish for the client: High-Performance Shared Storage...

    I think this discussion is going off-topic. I’m an IT consultant, and I’ve been running Proxmox in production since version 2. I’m asking a very practical business question, not looking for a definition academic debate. Yes, technically a ZFS...

    @janus57 and @alexskysilk Perhaps I wasn't clear. The question in this thread is: "Can I replicate the functionality offered by a SAN using Proxmox today, given that SAN vendors stubbornly refuse to provide direct support for Proxmox?" While...

    I mean Ceph and (in part) ZFS need more disks than a traditional SAN. And in these days disk's costs are insane.

    @AkUsP How many disks are necessary for Ceph? For NTS? for a SAN? They're not the same number... quts-mega has a native integration with Proxmox for snapshot?

    So for now,, Blockbridge or Ceph. No other way......

    @J-Rod I have I made a simple request: purchasing NEW products, is there anything that can guarantee stability, High Availability (HA), and snapshots? CEOs usually don't buy on eBay... As far as I know today—October 2026—the only solution...

    Given the costs associated with competitors, more and more companies are considering Proxmox. But as things stand - aside from Blockbridge and Ceph (the latter being hard to recommend nowadays due to prohibitive disk costs) - are there...

    I add my notes, i flew to the same conclusions: Problem Description: Under recent Proxmox VE kernels (6.8+ and 7.0+), servers equipped with Broadcom MegaRAID / HPE Smart Array Tri-Mode controllers (e.g., MR408i, MR216i, LSI 9500/9600 series...
