    Is this the right way to benchmark encrypted ZFS pool with fio?

    Hi All, As I am new to proxmox, zfs and fio, and before sharing any results, I wanted to confirm that I am doing it right (ie. I am testing the right things and in the right way)! I created a ZFS mirror pool over 2 HDDs for vms only (the proxmox host is on another ZFS pool of SSDs). I...

    [SOLVED] Wake on lan works with Windows 10 but not with Proxmox

    Hi All, I confirmed that Wake On Lan works with Windows 10 Pro on a Lenovo ThinkStation P310 with onboard Intel I219-LM GB Ethernet controller. I had to make some changes in the adapter settings (eg. disable "reduce speed on power down") and the UEFI BIOS to make it work. I was able to wake up...

    [SOLVED] SSD performance issue on ext4

    Hi All, I installed proxmox (using ext4 filesystem) on a 5212MB SATA SSD (used consumer-grade Sandisk SD8SB8U512G1001) to evaluate it. I run some benchmarks using fio, to get an idea of how fast it is. Before installing proxmox, I benchmarked the disk with PassMark's Performance Test on Win1o...

    Supported SAS HBA/IT PCIe controllers for ZFS pool

    Hi All, Any idea where I can find which PCIe SAS HBA/IT controllers are supported by and will 100% work with Proxmox and ZFS? I am scouting for an internal PCIe SAS HBA/IT controller. I'd like to use SAS HDDs, but there is no onboard support on my HP Z240 motherboard. Eventually, I want to...

    SAS vs SATA question for virtualization in home-server

    Hi all, I recently acquired an HP Z240 Workstation with Xeon E3-1270 v6 (4Cx3,80GHz+HT), 16GB DDR4 RAM, 512GB SATA SSD and NVS 315. I want to use it as an all-in-one, always-on, home server for backups, NAS, Plex, NextCloud, Bitwarden, etc. I will host Ubuntu VMs and Docker containers, on top...
