I'm learning Linux and Proxmox and built a machine to run Proxmox to host my servers that I used to use multiple machines for. In my Proxmox machine I have a 160 GB hard drive that Proxmox is installed on. I want to add two 1 TB drives that I use for all my file storage. So I have a couple questions.
Can I make a container that can mount the two 1 TB drives? I haven't been able to find out searching google, like I said I'm new to Linux so I may be missing something basic.
Currently the two 1 TB drives have all my files on them and they are NTFS. Is it possible to use these with NTFS in a container? Or will the need to be reformatted? I can backup and restore the files if that's the case.
My file server will be running Turnkey's file server and I'll add rtorrent/rutorrent to automatically download videos with RSS. I'm wondering how best to do this. I only know how to accomplish this if the storage (2x 1tb drives) is mounted in the container. I suppose all this is possible by running rtorrent on a separate container but I don't know how to setup network storage in Linux to give the rtorrent machine the ability to download to a different machine(container).
I'm sorry if this is nonsense, I'm still learning all this amazing stuff you can do with Proxmox/Linux and appreciate any advise or tips. Thank you for any help.
