Hello, I was wondering how to properly delete a VM and all of its data on the physical storage. The way that I currently do it is I go to more / remove, and check the 2 boxes within the dialogue, as seen in the picture. Does this delete all of the VM's data or keeps it on the physical disk...

Please forgive me, as I'm a total beginner. I'm wondering best practices/feedback on using one disk as the storage for multiple VMs and CTs. Here's what I have right now: /dev/sdc is used for backups. /dev/sdd is used for security cam storage. Things get a bit funky with ZFS formatted disk...

This is a tutorial on how to make fstrim run more often or on days that you wish. This could be handy if you have stuff continuously writing to the drives which then later gets deleted, which would cause it to create a large amount of unused data. For example, I have a Minecraft server running...
