Hi
@raksrules ,
I have a similar config. Have installed openmediavault with dietpi (instead of raspbian) as the base. The below services have been deployed using docker:

Hardware config
- Raspberry Pi 4 4GB
- 120GB SSD (Boot+Container configs+Download) - Connected to the Pi via a Sata to USB Adapter
- Powered USB Hub
- 2.5" 2TB HDD connected to the powered USB HUB - Only Media
I'm using a 120gb ssd to house the OS, docker config, and serve as the download location for qBitorrent. The reason for going with the SSD was to help with overall responsiveness, increase the I/O speeds (compared to SD Card) and reduce the writes on the HDD. It has been 2 months since the shift to SSD and I have got rid of I/O locks. As for the HDD life, only time will tell, but have configured it to spindown after 20 mins of inactivity. I would highly suggest you to shift to an ssd from sd card if you intend to keep this running long-term without any issues.
I plan to put up a post this weekend documenting the end-to-end process of setting this up to help other forum members. Meanwhile, if you have any queries, you can DM me, will be happy to guide.
