Hello,
I m planning to buy a third node for my proxmox homelab cluster. 3 nodes, each one of them will have a secondary ssd for separate storage.
I want some redundancy between those ssds, initially i thought Ceph is my way to go, but after some research i learned that Ceph is designed for enterprise clusters. For my setup with 3 secondary 1 tb ssds, from 3 tb in total i will only have 1 tb usable for data. That’s less that i was expecting.
Any suggestions for redundancy for my data in this small homelab setup? RAID 5 maybe? I m open to new suggestions.
Update: i found out that raid is possible at the node level only, not across nodes..
