Hello everyone!
I'd like to kindly ask you for a recommendation on installing Proxmox to my server.
As written bellow, I have Ryzen 5 3600 server with 32GB 3200Mhz Cl22 ECC RAM, Two SSDs (Mx500 250GB, Samsung 850 PRO 256GB) and one new Intel Optane 16GB.
The idea n.1 is to install proxmox in Raid 1 on both SSDs but since I don't have a data raid controller, I was wondering if I can use ZFS Raid (which is very new to me) and use my 16GB intel Optane as a cache.
Idea n.2 is to install Proxmox on 16GB intel Optane (if it's possible) and create software raid 1 in Proxmox with my two SSDs and have VMs on it.
Since I want to put the server in datacentre where I won't have much physical access, Proxmox VE looks like a good OS as far as I'm concerned.
Thank you in advance!
Any recommendations are welcome!
