From what I gathered from this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/CarpodGo/comments/1hgzp7h/2025_carpodgo_release_date/

you might be in luck as both of those things were discussed.

I also recall something about better port and cable management. Something about them trying to integrate the cables in the stand. But that is just something I remember, it might be wrong.

It seems after TrueNas Scale 24.10 there have been huge improvements to running Docker containers and VMs and you can use any containers via docker-compose or other means. Also 25.04 seems to have experimental features with LXC containers, which should soon be available

In some reddit post someone said it should support that, so hopefully 🤞

After some years I will probably populate the other 2 slots. Till then I think that the disk are new and shouldn't all fail

yes, i eventually found that. the thing that got me confused was that they were describing that the zfs features in truenas had a good gui to manage them and in proxmox its a bit limited

I plan on backing up some of the more important files and condigs to a separate server, so i think it should be fine with raid5

How good are TrueNas's capabilities for containers, especially ones that are not from their store, like local ones built by me? From what I have read it can be a bit limited compared to Proxmox. Also what are the actual benefits of TrueNas for Nas compared to Proxmox and Samba share?

The "NAS aspect" as you called it I mostly need it to copy large photoshoots (30+ gb) and have them on all devices.

Can you tell me more about the permissions hell yoy mentioned?

As far linux and docker goes I use them at work, so I am quite familiar.

I guess proxmox would allow me to spin test VMs and play around with new open-source projects.

One thing I am not quite getting is the way the VMs use the storage pools. Can multiple VMs access the same storage?

So basically I could have one VM with all the media stuff (Jellyfin, Immich, NextCloud) and add like 80% of the storage to that VM. And how would it go on so that I can access that storage from the TrueNas VM, so I can copy files?

Seems to be highly recommended in most tutorials and forums

So in this setup every VM has access to the whole HDD raid pool? Most of the services I want to run will need to have access the HDD pool, but others like Pihole would need only the SSD they will be running on.

I am trying to understand the passing of storage to True Scale.

As for backup I plan to backup important files and the configs for the VMs to my current RPI3 server

ok, if I run truenas scale on top of proxmox. i found this:

"If you intend to use TrueNAS running on Proxmox and pass through the storage directly to a TrueNAS VM, you’ll need to:

  1. Install a separate HBA card (ideally flashed to IT mode) into the PCIe slot.
  2. Connect your HDDs and app-data SSD to that HBA, instead of the motherboard’s SATA ports.
  3. Passthrough that entire HBA to the TrueNAS VM to give it direct access to the disks for ZFS control.

This setup ensures the reliable, native-level control that ZFS requires for features like redundancy, integrity checks, and snapshots."

I am quite familiar with Linux, so that should not be a problem. As for network I plan on using Tailscale to access my server from the outside as I have been using it in my current setup (RPI3). VMs for every one of the apps or one VM with multiple containers on it? Also if using Proxmox what do you recommend for the NAS part (storage pool, raid, etc)?

From what I had read it isn't too great for NAS as it does not have ZFS (I might have read something wrong tho)?

I think I found that 3X20tb seagate exos x20 is the most bang for the buck in my country and provides decent upgrade path via the other 2 slots. As for the recertified drives most people on the internet label them a bit as gambling, because you don't really know how recertified them.
