I have one server with two NVME drives. What is the best practice on making them a shared storage between Proxmox servers?

Hello dear Proxmox forum members,

I am planning to create two Proxmox servers, server1 (low spec) and server2 (high spec), both OS on ssd drives.

On server2, I will install two 1TB NVME drives. These drives I want to unite them and make them available as a shared storage between the two servers. What is the best way of doing this?

At first, I thought of using zfs-raid1, but later I realised that zfs cannot be shared.

So, what do you propose I should do for merging these two drives and making them accessible to both servers as a shared storage? I want to use these drives, as they are fast and will make migrating VMs between the two Proxmox servers faster than using SSD drives.

Thank you all beforehand for your answers.
