Virtualized or Bare-metal?

Hi there,

just a general discussion because I’m unable to make up my mind. Moreover, I see that virtualization threads are quite old.

I have a microserver gen 10 plus, 1TB SSD as root disk and planning to buy 2x HDD for a RAID1 configuration.
This system has 4C/4T and 16GB of RAM.

My use case:

  • General purpose NAS with shares accessible from different computers on LAN
  • VM or containers with my test environments (e.g. web apps with web servers and databases, nothing heavy)
  • VM or containers (rockons in that case) with common services (e.g. unifi controller, torrent client, etc.)

I’m ok with both ESXi or managing direclty OpenSuse. Of course ESXi would be faster and easiest, but I’m concerned about performances (just 4C/4T and 16 GB of RAM) and I don’t “philosophically” like to have a virtualized NAS solution.

What are your thoughts / opinions?
Thanks
