Best way to create a NAS, while having other services running? (alien.top)

Hi, I'd like to have on a single computer HomeAssistant and a NAS server, so I was obviously considering Proxmox. Well, now I don't understand what is better to do: Virtualize TrueNAS? Or creating a ZFS RAID pool directly in Proxmox and using a containerized Samba? Or anything else? Thank you.

Depends on whether you want your NAS to just be NAS or you want to be more like a server with docker containers etc. I use mine for just storage and set up the ZFS in Proxmox and using Turnkey file server as an interface for setting up shares,etc. They have a template in Proxmox for the Turnkey File Server and it uses almost no resources.
