I know a lot of people will say "What do you expect running proxmox on consumer hardware?" but the Mac Mini draws 15 - 20W is silent and perfectly capable for most applications. Well I can tell you the mac has had 0 errors for years running with ZFS over the USB.
Everyone will tell you, don't run proxmox on 'consumer' hardware and don't run ZFS over USB. I installed Proxmox on the old mac and connected it via USB to a 5 bay DAS. I had a Mac Mini 2012 i7 (4 core / 8 thread / 16Gb Ram / 1Tb SSD) that due to age Apple stop providing updates so I bought a new M1 mac mini which is great, wish I'd gone for more memory with hindsight but that's another story. TLDR This is about problems running Proxmox for homelab / media centre on cheap unsupported hardware that's not well documented. Its my experience and I'm not sure what the problem or what's possible at this point.
Please to ignore the vast scope of this post.
