I have recently joined the selfhosting world after many years of thinking about it. Currently running casaOS with an assortment of containers. Mainly use nextcloud, paperlessNGX, and general file storage.
I am thinking of creating a proxmox cluster. Just wanted to ask for those who do. Is it worth it? And what services are you guys running?
I was thinking of using it for NAS, and a window VM and run other random things that I don’t know yet.
Looking into grabbing some Lenovo M715q. Found a decent deal.
I’ve got a 3 node cluster. They are a hodge-podge of weak, old hardware. Yes, it’s worth it. Don’t worry about HA and automatic migration. It’s nice to have a single interface to all the nodes. Also look into the proxmox backup server (PBS). It’s a very nice backup system.

Thank I will definitely be looking into PBS!
