TLDR: I am running some Docker containers on a homelab server, and the containers’ volumes are mapped to NFS shares on my NAS. Is that bad performance?
- I have a Linux PC that acts as my homelab server, and a Synology NAS.
- The server is fast but has 100GB SSD.
- The NAS is slow(er) but has oodles of storage.
- Both devices are wired to their own little gigabit switch, using priority ports.
Of course it’s slower to run off HDD drives compared to SSD, but I do not have a large SSD. The question is: (why) would it be “bad practice” to separate CPU and storage this way? Isn’t that pretty much what a data center also does?
