Long story short, i have a lenovo mini pc running proxmox and a fair few standard things. Docker with arr stack etc. Im looking to add more TB’s to my setup. I now just have a small 2,5” hdd inside the mini pc, not ideal for longevity or redundancy.
I am currently eying the dxp 4800 or dxp 4800 plus. Is this a good approach or is it overkill? Im trying to keep things as cheap as possible and as low in power consumption and noise as possible. I appreciate any insights.
You’ll probably not be able to attach DAS to a minipc and be reliable, so all that’s left is a NAS. Or, obviously, you can get another pc that’ll take a number of storage devices other than m2 or that can handle a HBA of some sort. You want your mini pcs to stay cool as much as possible and putting in HBAs (in whatever way) or m2 devices (even worse) isn’t going to do anyone any favors.
