I have an old x86_64 computer which I am planning to use as a NAS. Which of the 2 is a better option? Is it helpful or better to run on bare metal or as a VM on proxmox?

    TrueNAS Scale is also Debian and uses standard ZFS for drive management. However I’m not a fan of the TrueNAS webUI, it feels overly complex and stuff can be hard to find.

    OMV + MergerFS, SnapRAID, or just MDADM is nice and simple.
