It’s generally straightforward to move an existing VM from Ubuntu Desktop into Unraid, especially since you’re using QEMU-KVM. The main challenge is ensuring the VM runs correctly without issues. Just confirm the setup matches what you expect in Unraid, and it should work smoothly.

You should easily copy the QCOW volume by simply copying the VM image. For a VM server like Proxmox that supports KVM and offers superior VM management, consider that option.

Great question! I'm checking to confirm whether Proxmox offers a comparable approach for managing XML configurations—like assigning GPUs or USB devices—to what you're used to. Let me know if you'd like further details!

It's entirely managed through the configuration file. Just noting that GPU pass-through might be sensitive.
