Comment on Proxmox SMB Share not reaching full 2.5Gbit speed

For storage, I’m using a single Samsung Evo 870 with 2TB (backups will be done anyway, no need for RAID). In order to do this, I setup a Debian 12 container, installed Cockpit and the tools needed to share via SMB.
I wonder who owns the storage harddisk: the proxmox host or the Debian VM?
Maybe that’s worth another try in your test setup: pass this physical device to the Debian VM, in order to eliminate possible losses from the virtualization.

The disk is owned by to PVE host and then given to the container (not a VM) as a mount point. I could use PCIe passthrough, sure, but using a container seems to be the more efficient way.
