Each Proxmox node is equipped with a **256GB SATA SSD** for the operating system, ISO files, and VM/LXC templates. For the workload storage, I added a **1TB NVMe drive** per node, which forms the basis of my **Ceph cluster**. This gives me distributed, redundant, and high-performance storage for VMs and containers, which allows live migration and high availability across the cluster.

Originally, my first node had two **1TB HDDs** installed internally for bulk storage. To free up space and improve airflow, I moved them outside the case using **USB-to-SATA adapters** and reconnected them to the same node. These drives now store my **photos, personal documents, and backups**—less performance-critical data that doesnt need to sit on Ceph. Originally, my first server had two **1TB HDDs** installed internally. Because I needed a slot for the SSD, I moved them outside the case using **USB-to-SATA adapters** and reconnected them to the same node. These drives store my photos, Nextcloud documents and backups, less performance-critical data that doesnt need to sit on Ceph. They are served on the network using a NFS server sitting in a LXC container on that node.

I quickly learned that my network gear was turning my closet into a mini furnace. Fortunately, I started the build in December, so the heat wasnt too noticeable, but come summer, it was bound to become a real problem.
