Proxmox running TrueNAS and NextCloud or Nextcloud on TrueNAS via Docker? (lemmy.world)

As the title states, how would you set it up? I've got an HP EliteDesk G5, what are the strengths and weaknesses of either:

  • ProxMox with one VM running TrueNAS and another VM running Nextcloud
  • TrueNAS on bare metal with Nextcloud running in docker
  • Some other setup

I'd like to be able to easily expand and backup the storage available to Nextcloud as needed and I'd also like the ability to add additional VMs/containers/services as needed

If they really want just ZFS, Proxmox offers it.

It just doesn't come with a built-in UI

    well, it actually has a UI for managing ZFS volumes in proxmox lol. proxmox is very versatile I'll admit. I use it also, but because I absolutely need the vm capability to run opnsense and debian on the same machine. If OP only needs a NAS with docker, he may not need that power. well who am I to decide. this is selfhosted so people can just try anything.
