I just spun up a Nextcloud VM, and I'm trying to decide the best way to manage the data storage.

For context, I'm running it on proxmox and installed it with This script.

Ideally I'd like to keep most of my storage on my NAS. I'm trying to figure out if I should keep the data directory local and add a NAS NFS share as external storage, or just move the whole data directory to an NFS share.

How are you guys handling your Nextcloud storage?

I have my storage mounted from my NAS using NFS and this is added to Nextcloud using the External Storage plugin. Works great.
