Hello everyone,
I am currently using a Lenovo ThinkStation P920 for my home lab setup, but I’m facing a limitation with the number of drives I can install.
The Qnap TR-004 has caught my attention because it can be configured as a JBOD, allowing me to add four new 12TB hard drives. My plan is to connect the Qnap TR-004 to my P920, where I have Proxmox 8.3.0 installed, and pass the drives from the TR-004 through to a VM running TrueNAS.
Challenges other users are Facing:
- After rebooting the entire Proxmox system, the VM, or the TR-004, the setup stops working as it did before. Can anyone explain why this happens and how to resolve it?
- I’ve read that passing through the hard disks can reduce performance. Is this true, and if so, to what extent?
Main Question: Overall, will this setup work effectively with good to moderate performance? Are there any potential impacts on the hard drives I plan to install in the TR-004?
Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read this and provide helpful comments.
Best regards,
Aymene Chaabaoui.
