Ever experienced that heart-stopping moment when one of your precious HDs decides to take a break amid your Proxmox adventures? I bet you have!
So, here's the deal – I've been diving into the vast ocean of Proxmox tutorials on YouTube, and guess what I found? A sea of so-called 'experts' proudly flaunting their NAS setups with Proxmox as the mighty host. But let me burst that bubble for a moment.
Reality check: You can't even think about starting or running a VM if one of your HDs decides to play hide-and-seek in passthrough mode. It's like expecting a car to run without wheels – not the most practical scenario, right?
And here's the kicker – until Proxmox waltzes in with a magical option that lets your VM kick into action regardless of the HD's mood (working, defective, or on vacation), the dream of a virtual NAS using Proxmox as the host remains more fantasy than reality.
So, spill the beans, folks! Do you agree with this Proxmox puzzle, or do you have some tricks up your sleeve to make it work seamlessly? Let the discussion begin!
(note: I do not have a PCI raid/none raid card that I could passthrough ... this is the only real option to make a virtual NAS I would imagine)
