Comment on Moving db data (MariaDB) to NFS NAS Hello self-hosters! :) I’d like to tap in

@INeedMana the honest answer is usually yes, avoid it. InnoDB leans on fsync and byte-range locking behaving correctly, and NFS has historically been shaky on both. the failure mode isn't slowness, it's silent corruption after a power blip or a lock that didn't hold. if you want the NAS for durability, keep the db on local SSD and back the data dir up to the NAS (or replicate), rather than run the live files over NFS
Ah. So there is a devil in the details here. Thank you :)
Could you please expand on that? You mean DB replication or there is something like NFS replication?
