which Raidcontroller are you recommend?

Ich hab mir das in etwa so vorgestellt.

SSD Raid1 für Proxmox und VM als OS HDD
3,5" RAID? for Datagrab so i wanna passthrough the Raidcontrollor directly to the NAS VM.

In the future there will also attached an Usb Hdd for Backupjobs

I wanna not spend 1000 of euros so i wanna keep it very tight.


regards

Hello onedread,

why don't you go with just a simple NAS-Server with openmediavault and a AMD AM1.
For example:

http://geizhals.de/at/?cat=cpuamdam1&xf=5_AES#xf_top

All the features except 6 are possible with omv and the power usage is a lot less for a server running 24/7.
The AMD AM1-Platform supports AES so you can have also encryption with this low-power system ;-)
It also supports AMD-V, so virtutalization is possible to a certain degree but I don't think you can run to many guests... and for occasionally testing you could do it on a more powerful workstation or laptop?
