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

    You don’t actually have to learn either of them to get the system working

    They actually did a really good job of making it user-friendly

      But then if you don’t understand how it works, how do you make off-site backups?

      How do you extract data if one day you want to use another os?

      What if you want to backup the database?
