I’m trying to plot out a home server build, and I’d like to do it in a rackmount form factor. Use case will likely be Proxmox running a NAS VM and some media services. For the NAS piece, I was thinking an enclosure with hot swap bays would be nice. Anyone have recommendations on the case/enclosure itself?

I run TrueNAS SCALE in a proxmox VM. I only use promox as a hypervisor because TrueNAS SCALE can’t migrate VMs to another node when running on uncertified hardware, aka has no High Available failover abilities (which proxmox also only has when using ZFS or a network storage). Otherwise, you can only configure TrueNAS via the WebGUI, settings made with the cli are not persistent where as with Proxmox you have to really love the cli because you can’t do most things via the WebGUI. Proxmox also is quite buggy and often breaks itself, if a backup job hangs you have to physically pull the plug of thr hypervisor to kill it for e.g.
