Installing Open Media Vault on Proxmox made EASY

This guide is perfect for those seeking a cost-effective NAS solution! Follow this video to have an Open Media Vault (OMV) Virtual Machine running on Proxmox quickly! This video walks you through the entire process so that you will walk away with a fully functional NAS on your existing hardware.

OpenMediaVault is a network-attached storage (NAS) solution that runs smoothly on lightweight hardware, enabling you to repurpose older computers or use inexpensive hardware components to build a robust NAS system without a significant financial investment.

Here's what you'll learn:
1. How to build and configure the OMV Virtual Machine
2. How pass multiple hard drives into the VM for use as NAS storage
3. How create a RAID array in OMV so that you mirror your drives or create a single large drive
