No server expertise here, so bear with me.
I was thinking about repurposing some old hardware for a home server with proxmox, a rarr stack and jellyfin, small NAS, small web servers with databases that only need to be up most of the time, not 99%.
I'll still need to buy some storage devices and don't know which filesystem to use yet.
If i get a large HDD for my media files and a smaller one for my NAS and server data, can I get a RAIDZ1 with ZFS that mirrors the smaller HDD onto part of the larger HDD and have the rest of the large HDD just be media files? So a 1TB drive and a 8TB drive and the 8TB drive is divided into a regular 7TB logical volume and a 1TB logical volume that mirrors my small physical 1TB drive.
Will ZFS allow me to do that or should i just use LVM.
Also i was gonna get 2x 128GB consumer NVMe for the boot drives. Idk if that is fine.
