Very similar to my setup as well. I have a Qotom with 5x2.5Gb NICs. It’s got a lower end processor - Intel Celeron J4125 but I haven’t noticed any performance issues with my 1.5Gb connection.
I’ve got my proxmox cluster and my workstation on one interface with a 2.5Gb unmanaged switch, and then on another interface a Unifi 8 Lite PoE switch with 2 Unifi AP’s where all the streaming devices, wife’s and kids devices live.
Because you just might happen to be Mr. Naughty Dog himself browsing Lemmy and thinking “wow that’s the kind of talent I need on my team!”
Late reply, but I’ve got 4 proxmox nodes. TrueNAS with an HBA passed through, the arr stack, jellyfin, Home assistant, Nextcloud, bookstack, Unifi network application, Kavita, a windows VM with a 3080ti passed through that the kids can connect to using moonlight to play games on various tvs/devices. Various Linux distros to play around and test configs before I make any serious changes to my main desktop. Most recently set up graylog to pull in logs from pfsense and Unifi.
I have an insatiable thirst to just learn!
