Hi everone, basically what the title says. I am just starting my homelab and I am somewhat conflicted on whether I should run Opensense in Proxmox or should I buy a n100 device dedicated for it. What are some of the pros and cons of doind either or. So far in my research I have only come across articles/forum posts explaining how to run Opensense in Proxmox.
I ran opnsense in a VM for years with no issue, just recently went to dedicated hardware. Every now and then I’d want to replace a drive or swap the GPU in the host for jellyfin and taking the internet out with it sucks a lot.
Being able to snapshot opnsense is cool, but opnsense also has a very robust backup and restore system so idk.
