im going to use this to run my process automation software im planning to use.

I have my big machine running plex as i have like 30 people on it and it transcodes a good bit. No matter how hard i try to get people to upp their bandwidth via settings, it still calles to transcode down to some extent.

But i do plan to move that machine to more of a server environment. I was going to start a tread on this but ill ask you before i do that.

As of now i just have my main machine running Win10. I would like to install proxmox so i can set up virtual environments. Is there a way to basically copy my windows instance and install it to a VM without loosing a step? Im basically wanting to have my big machine run VMs for plex, my surveillance system, and the home automation software. I will probably move the hardware to a server rack was well.

and bear in mind i dont know much about all this. i just learn from reading and youtube videos.

Where there's a will, there's a way, but it would likely go poorly

I have to move away from my rack setup, sadly. Wife says it's too loud and ugly in the second bedroom even though it's barely louder then fans in the room. I spent a lot of time and money on that setup
