Okay I saw this posted a lot and apparently it is pretty common but why do people virtualize your nas in for example a proxmox server/cluster. If that goes down it gets super hard to get your data back than if you do it bare Metal, doesn’t it? Are people only doing it so save on seperate devices or are my concerns unreasonable?
I agree, proxmox or truenas by itself on baremetal should cover a lot of applications. Both can do most things the other can do to some extent but each has it’s on specialties and focuses. Proxmox more for VMs, truenas for primarily storage/NAS. But both can do either.
