TruNAS is a VM? I thought it preferred bare metal? I would think it would be side by side with proxmox? (Still learning and planning my setup.

Absolutely no problem with it being virtualized as long as you have a pci storage controller and [pass that through to trueNAS](https://www.truenas.com/blog/yes-you-can-virtualize-freenas/). HBA cards can be found that do this without raid or anything so you can use zfs in trueNAS.

I've got a virtualized set up to. Its pretty unbothered being virtualized so long as the disks are passed through. In my set up, I have the SAS board passed through and its using that. My reasoning is that I wanted a lot of disks space, but I couldn't get that without just a big case in general, so I use the extra space to store GPUs for AI and encoding stuff
