    Passing an entire SATA HDD to TrueNAS Scale VM

    When I am trying to pass an entire SATA HDD to a TrueNAS Scale VM, which interface should I be using? SATA? SCSI? or Virtio Block? My Gigabyte H110 D3A motherboard only has one SATA controller, and four SATA ports on board. One of them is used for the Proxmox installation itself. As a result...

    I get it. I get it. 3 Nodes for Ceph. But what about ZFS shared?

    I have a pretty basic need, for a small business I own. Basically one VM that I need to run, and in essence I want HA, in the sense that if the node fails, it's taken over by another proxmox server. I'd prefer it to used shared storage ZFS, and I have this running in lab right now. I've stayed...

    Who is using a RAID controller?

    Should I sell the RAID controllers in each of my R740s and just put Mini H330 HBA controllers in? The general consensus seems to be to use ZFS, so why waste a PCIe slot on these things?
