My though was to use hardware raid, and just set that up for the 2 hdds, then boot off an ssd with Debian (very familiar, and use it for current server which has 30+ docker containers. Basically I like and am good at docker so would like to stick to Debian+docker. But if hardware raid isn’t the best option for HDDs now a days, I’ll learn the better thing)
Which drives? Renewed or refurb are half the cost, so should I buy extra used ones, and just be ready to swap when the fail?
I am aware of vdev expansion since i am following it closely but not heard about docker support, thanks for that new, i will read into it. Would be actually a game changer for a project i am planning.

I’m not the best person to explain the how or why but they are looking at Q3 for beta and Q4 for main release.
I’m running Immich, Nextcloud and Jellyfin on TNS and it’s fine. Nextcloud takes a bit of work though.
