Okay, thank you, that’s good to know. However, I don’t have two separate devices that I can use to separate the NAS functionality from the Docker functionality, that’s why I was using Proxmox in the first place. And, I’m not sure how well Docker can run in OMV. But I’ll still keep it in mind as an option, thank you!

I think you’ve misunderstood

Ok, OMV needs a separate (small) boot drive to install on (ie consider a M.2 / SSD on a USB adapter)

But, then all your (large) storage is used for the NAS.

OMV will run Docker containers, but their data would also be pointed to the large NAS storage.

| Small | Large | |-----------+----------------| | OMV | Files | | Docker| Data, etc |

  You’re right, I misunderstood. I understand now, thank you for replying with detail. I’m currently still not over my “I like Hypervisors now” phase. If I go back to bare metal, I will most probably use the setup you described. Still, thank you very much, and I’m keeping this thread for future reference.
