lsblk |awk 'NR==1{print $0" $0" ";system("find /dev/disk/by-id -lname \"*"dev"\" -printf \" %p\"");print "";}'|grep -v -E 'part|lvm'

Might want to put that in the description.

NOTE: This whole Truenas on a VM/Container thing is not the way to do it. Use Samba or NFS with Proxmox or put truenas on bare metal. This is not the right way to do things. You have been warned.

Thanks for the great video and easy to follow!. I just did it on my side with TrueNAS scale and worked like a charm!

This video helped me gain confidence that the article achieved what I wanted! You're a legend!

Thank you so much for these instructions. The very best in regards to setting up a raid disk on Proxmox TrueNas VM. Exactly what I needed to get going on our new server. It worked for me even while using TrueNas Scale. God bless you for your time in making this video!

Thanks for the video my man. I was digging through the wiki, but figured I'd give the youtube search a shot!

Extremely useful and concise guide. Hugely appreciated.

ckear and straight forward explanation. Nicely done!

[danielsauriol]

Thanks a lot for your video. Your clear step-by-step explanations allowed me to add a passthroughhard drive to my TrueNAS VM, which is on Thanks a Bunch !!! -dan

[dandumbrill]

Awesome video! Thanks for the step-by-step. Very easy to follow and best of all it worked.

This was a really cool video! I was going to do this myself, but since I was working with an 4790, doing VMs on such an old CPU didn't seem logical and I needed storage more, so I did bare metal install instead.

Dude thank you so much for this, your videos lands so perfect for timing as I plug away at tweaking my homelab. Just swapped my Perc6i with an HB200 in IT mode so I can finally start my server config but I’ve been bottled necked at getting the drives set up properly for TruNAS to see them. Im only about halfway through the video but skimming through I think your method will work. Love Low-Res but his way of doing it didn’t seem to work for me. And it’s weird because we have the same hardware he’s just doing it with SSDs where as I’m using SAS drives
