I’ve currently got Nextcloud AIO hosted in Proxmos on a NUC to play around with what works and what doesn’t and get a feel for self hosting, and I’m loving it.

Space on the NUC is an issue, 512GB just won’t cut it if I move my whole family over.

So I’ve ordered a ODROID H4+ and will be setting it up as a NAS with 2x 6TB HDD’s in a ZFS mirror (it arrives next week) and then I’ll move everything over to it.

Is it possible for me to use the 1TB SSD to save all data excluding Media (Photo’s and Videos) and use the HDD’s for the rest as they take up lots of space.

I’d also like to then use Immich to scan the Media on the HDD’s to use it as a viewer (And sync phone media etc. through nextcloud because I find it to be more stable, and then everything will still work even if Immich is down)

What are your thoughts? Is this a good idea? Is it over complicated? How would you set it up?
