For what it's worth, I did have proxmox setup at work with a dedicated box providing LVM lvs as iSCSI, and mdadm-raid6 underneath. It worked OK, but the added complexity is more trouble than it's worth. My current work doesn't use proxmox, but my personal setup right now is ZFS RAIDZ2 on SSDs, shared on a seperate network via NFS to my 3 proxmox hosts.
