I currently run a Lenovo minipc and an rpi4 to host all of my homelab services, and I just purchased a new minipc with an 11th Gen i5 in order to better handle Plex and transcoding. I would also like to add Immich to my homelab. Here is a breakdown of my current state:
Lenovo Mini PC running Proxmox: Home Assistant OS VM Ubuntu VM running:
- Frigate
- Pi-hole
- Plex
- Arr Stack
- Transmission
- Has two ext HDs in a mergerfs configuration to host all media and onsite homelab backups.
RPi4:
- Wireguard VPN
- Pi-hole
I am going to install Proxmox on the new minipc, and setup both in a cluster. I would like to move Plex, Arrs, Transmission, and Immich to the new mini PC. Because of that I am thinking the external drives should be connected directly to the new minipc to maximize performance. I would also like to have the ability to share the external drives to any nodes in the cluster.
Do you have any recommendations on how to best setup these drives? Should I setup a TrueNAS VM on the new minipc and share to all others via NFS? Any other tips for my setup?
Got it so I’m just overthinking this. I setup an NFS share through the host via the command line and then I’ll be able to share that to anything on the network.
So I’m having some permission issues with this. If I create a file within one container, it is read only when accessed from another. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
