I'm running around 90% of the things in my homelab in a kubernetes cluster. I love it, but storage has been the biggest challenge. From my experience, OpenEBS and Rook both seem to be good options when you have multiple physical machines with disks on each one. Portworx is also very good, but the licensing costs are way too high. I'm running my kubernetes nodes as VMs and I didn't want to have to backup the virtual machine disks. I just wanted to back up my freenas server, so I went with trying to use NFS. I wanted to use the NFS client provisioner, as I thought I'd want to be able to add and remove volumes automatically, however, this makes redeploying onto a new cluster from scratch hard. Eventually, I just tore that out and just mounted each NFS volume individually because it turns out that I actually only need a handful of volumes.
