Hello, I’m seeking advice.

I need help with a new setup. Currently, I have a Raspberry Pi 5 with OpenMediaVault (installed on microSD) + Portainer + Docker running from a USB HDD, but I’m not satisfied with this configuration - it looks messy and is a bit slow.

I’m considering buying an Odroid H4+ with 2 or 3 SSD disks to run NAS + Nextcloud (and possibly Home Assistant) on that server. What would be the best option for me? I like how TrueNAS operates, but it seems a bit too powerful for my needs. Should I:

  • Use TrueNAS Scale with Nextcloud and Home Assistant as apps on TrueNAS?
  • Use Proxmox with multiple VMs (NAS, Nextcloud, Home Assistant, …)?
  • Use OpenMediaVault with the KVM plugin and run Nextcloud within OpenMediaVault?
  • Or consider something completely different?

I would like to have the OS on a small disk and every other service on a second large disk (or in RAID1).

    It’s say definitely try TrueNAS scale, it’s dead simple to setup and dead simple to use. You can also run VMs on it along side the apps.
