Although the basic installation works in all scenarios, there may be times when the advanced installation option is necessary. Only the advanced installation option provides you the ability to customize the main OS drive.
A common practice for the operating system drive is to use a mirror RAID array using a controller interface. This provides drive redundancy if one of the drives fails. This same level of redundancy can also be achieved using a software-based RAID array, such as ZFS. Proxmox now offers options to select ZFS-based arrays for the operating system drive right at the beginning of the installation.
