Hey!

I am currently using Yunohost on my HP EliteDesk 600 G3 but I want to switch to a docker based system. That makes it a lot more flexible. Most important apps are: Vaultwarden and Nextcloud. I dont have a lot of data so 2TB is mostly enough (but would be nice if I can extend that).
Disks: 2x2TB SSD and 1x1TB SSD

I am using a Synology as my Backup for my Data (sending backup every night via restic)

So my question is: What OS do I use for this?
Had a look at:
- OMV: nice, OpenSource, but Docker stuff is since the new update...not so nice.
- unraid: tested it, very easy to handle, but feels like "to powerful" and I am only using SSDs and I read you should use HDDs for the array.
- Debian + Portainer: Both Options above are powerful and I think more for "save a lot of data" systems. Debian+Portainer sounds like an minimalistic solution for what I want, but I dont know if this I have to configure a lot and having a lot of work with it. I am not very experience with that (I know how to use docker but I am not a pro)
- Something different?

​

Thanks for your help!
(sorry for bad english ^^)
