Proxmox with ZFS and zfs-auto-snapshot - rock solid, fully encrypted [3](german) and not too power hungry. On my Homeserver
Fujitsu D3417-B2
Xeon 1225v5
32GB ECC RAM
Pico PSU 150W
Samsung 980 Pro NVMe
it takes only 9.3 Watt idle after some optimizations and you can choose ready LXC containers like https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/ https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/ or https://github.com/extremeshok/xshok-proxmox https://github.com/extremeshok/xshok-proxmox to partly automate some of the installations.
It can even run macOS VMs[1] and raspberry pi virtualized[2]
Works great so far and way better than TrueNAS Scale (at least atm) or bare metal linux systems. Needs some research and learning though[4].

- jtode 4y agoI'm avoiding virtualization other than docker containers until I can afford a system with ECC ram. I'm not even sure if containers are that safe but I think they are? I am a weird pastiche of extreme competence and shocking ignorance, but I know you don't want to run VMs on non-ECC.
