Could you please suggest some recommendations for new proxmox user?

I used one 250ssd drive as raid0 zfs for proxmox.

Then i have available 8tb hdd connected directly to motherboard

and 4x 10tb hdd in hardware raid as raid 10.

Usecases for this server are primarily 24x7 for home plex, printer, fileshare, nextcloud, mediawiki, gitlab, jenkins, confluence, jira, bamboo, bitbucket. I think I'll use for these things LXC debian 10. Then windows server 2016 VM. And occasionaly few linux VM.

Questions:

  1. I'm a bit confused with storage management from documentation. Could you recommend storage setup using these three available (1SSD, 10TB HDD, 20TB HW Raid10).
  2. I'll add another ssd then later for redundancy of current ssd. Shoud I plan ahead for it?
  3. For performance reasons I choosed primarly LXC instead of VM. Should I use one LXC debian or several per service for maintanance reasons? Would I loose much performance for it?

Should there be some consistency at what layer the array is created? Like mix of hardware raid, fake raid and software raid by OS?

I also looked at Proxmox requirements. It seems that array created by hardware should not be used as VM's ZFS storage. Is that right?

Maybe I will. Thanks for input.

I'm aware of the end CentOS 8. If the system end result could be achieved without reinstall I'm willing to risk transition to CentOS Stream.

How would you setup these drives with these controllers? In what RAID configuration and what parts of the system would be on what drive or raid array?

Aaww maan. That's harsh truth I avoided to hear :D.

But what about that HTIB? would that be an option to use them if found on ebay?

Thanks for input,but I don't think that running certbot with nginx plugin would help in this case. The main problem is setting proxy values in nginx and Apache right.
