August 7, 20232 yr I am going to run a Linux VM on Unraid to be able to do cloud backup to IDrive. If I mount the Unraid shares in this Linux VM (using SMB) - how is the traffic routed? Will everything be internal traffic on the server - or will it go out and in again through my switch and then be restricted to my network speed? Is there any better way of getting access to these shares/file from my VM than to map them as SMB? Can the VM get direct access to the shares on the Unraid file system somehow?
