No hardware RAID. Use zfs, if you can. Mirror the boot SSD. I would use a stripe over mirror and 4 HDDs. Two drives are not enough redundancy. Use enterprise or nearline drives, if you can. Debian is great, you can install Proxmox on top of it, but from the sound of it plain Debian would work for you.
For Debian how does the drive restore/rebuild process work?
https://wiki.debian.org/ZFS has nice docs. I would practice in nonproduction first if you're unfamiliar with zfs.
Awesome thanks. My current system would become my test environment.
