Hello,

I understand that this question has been asked many times in the forum but still I'm not so sure about what I'm planning to do. I'm wondering if the disk layout I'm thinking about make sense. Basically, I have the following disks:
- 2 NVMe
- 12 SSDs (8 on the motherboard SATA and 4 on HBA PCIe).

My plan:
- Proxmox OS: 2 NVMe -- ZFS -- RAID1
- Data storage: 8 SSD -- ZFS -- RAID10
- VM storage: 4 SSD from HBA PCIe -- ZFS -- RAID10

I'm going to use Proxmox principally with VMs (for servers) and the data storage is not for a NAS-like storage but for the VMs data.

Is my plan relevant ?
