If you are using Proxmox in your home lab environment and you have a SAN or NAS running iSCSI, you can attach this shared storage to your Proxmox node. In this video, we take a look at adding Synology iSCSI shared storage to Proxmox and see how this can be done. We also look at troubleshooting iSCSI storage in Proxmox.
