Proxmox or NAS for Media Server (lemmy.world)

Hey all, been running TrueNAS Scale for a few months now on a PC I built along with Proxmox on another mini PC I bought.

I tried setting up my media server on TrueNAS scale but didn't like my NAS running hot and being used so much but tried setting up Jellyfin and the arr media suite on Proxmox but ran into some issues with NFS shares and also SMB shares from TrueNAS along with config issues.

Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions or recommendations on how I should setup my media server and home network.

I'm using Open Media Server on a PC. Docker for Plex and a DAS for data storage. It isn't simple but it's not hard and it's been stable and easy to use after you figure out setup and get used to where things are in menus. It's basically a nas with docker albeit a little slower because it's USB storage.
