Honestly I would get a pcie sata controller card. It is fairly inexpensive and doesn't tie up the controller on the motherboard
Should I pass the whole controller? I have the Proxmox disk on the same controller, how do I do that?
Ouch...got it. Thanks
Does it works with SATA drives and, most important: can it provides the single drives to the OS without RAID (since I would want to use a software RADI like RIADz)?
Interesting, I'll have a look on how to flash the IT mode. Thanks!
Cool! What's your feeling about SnapRaid and MergerFS instead of RAIDz?
Got it, thanks!
On eBay they all seems to be coming from China at about 30$ with cables (although they are the 8087 and not 8086), could they be clone? In Europe (where I live) they costs about 60€.
You can pass them as individual drives too.

What's the advantage to using proxmox and virtualizing TrueNAS in your use case?
I'm looking to setup a TrueNAS box mostly as a file server (I have a bunch of spare drives sitting around, so I can duplicate locally and then backup to a cloud provider), but also as a docker host.
(I'm also researching some setups for friends businesses with the VMware debacle - they have a year to migrate).
Neat, thanks for the info.
Guess I need to read up on what Proxmox offers - I was focusing on TrueNAS as a simple all-on one, maybe Proxmox has something for me.
