I have used vmware for years on an old dell 2950 and dell r710 all for personal use.
I have run out of space so decided I would like to give proxmox a crack.
I have brought another dell r710. And would like that start with one drive and add more drives over time. I would like to try zfs.
Is this possible? I would like to get one 10tb drive obviously there will be no redudnacy. But I would like to add another 10tb in a month or so (and continue doing this until server is full) and would each drive be easy to add to the pool or will I need to add a new pool each time? Or is it easier to get all the drives then setup server. Ideally would like to start migrating services from old vmware r710.
Would it be easier starting with x drives and add more later?
