Dockerstack Storage Notes
Local SSD
Use /docker/... for:
- Docker root (
/docker/docker-data) - GPU/model storage
- SQLite-backed apps
- Apps that chown on startup
- Write-heavy DB/search storage
Examples:
/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/docker-data/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/ollama/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/openwebui/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/immich/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/immich-ml/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/plex/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/tautulli/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/audiobookshelf/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/seerr/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/dockhand/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/rackpeek/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/compose/dev/rackpeek(git-tracked RackPeek inventory source)/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/shlink/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/gitea/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/netdata/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/tailscale/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/appdata/uptime-kuma/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/databases/postgres/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/databases/mariadb/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/databases/redis
TrueNAS NFS
Use /mnt/tank/docker/... for:
- Normal appdata
- Uploads
- Non-fussy config and data
- Backups
- Downloads
Examples:
/mnt/tank/docker/appdata/homepage/mnt/tank/docker/appdata/newt/mnt/tank/docker/appdata/kitchenowl/mnt/tank/docker/appdata/donetick/mnt/tank/docker/appdata/qui/mnt/tank/docker/appdata/calibre-web-automated/mnt/tank/docker/backups/mnt/tank/docker/downloads
Unraid NFS
Use /mnt/unraid/... for media and shared bulk content only:
/mnt/unraid/data/media/— Plex libraries, books, etc./mnt/unraid/immich— Immich photo/video storage
Rules Learned
- SQLite apps and apps that write logs aggressively should prefer local SSD.
- Database/search/model-heavy workloads should prefer local SSD.
- General config and less write-sensitive appdata can live on TrueNAS NFS.
- Media should stay on Unraid mounts.
- SQLite on ZFS with nfsv4 ACLs will always fail — move to SSD or use Postgres.
- Apps with auto-upgrade features that use bind mounts: pre-create all source directories manually on TrueNAS to prevent Docker from trying to create them at the read-only root.
