Hi all,
I am planning a build which is currently configured to have 4x 12TB HDDs (HDD- HUH721212ALE601), and 2x 4TB Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus M.2, and 768GB RAM.
I would like to configure the server such that it uses ZFS RAIDZ-1 and caching to leverage the super fast M.2. I should mention MOBO is a H13SSL-N.
I'll be running proxmox as my virtualization platform with the following virtual machines to start out with:
- A jellyfin host (and so a whole bunch of media stored on the HDD, let's assume 20TB)
- A scientific computing machine for large parallel CPU tasks and GPU tasks (and so a few large datasets stored on the HDD, let's assume 10Tb).
Here's my question for you. Are the Sabrent drives up for the task given the write amplification that might be happening here? Will I be limited by drive speed anywhere?
