On a file server I plan to move to proxmox, I've a question about the file server storage format.
I plan to put the operating system on qcow2
However, the 300 gig disk for the files (will be on the same server), I was wondering if that shouldn't be raw format?

Sound about right? A 300 gig qcow2 file seems a bit much.. ???
