Hello Amudhan, I will be using Cephfs + with samba for max 10 clients for upload and > download. > Please use samba vfs and not the kernel mount.

It brings you Ceph the easy way including anything from Ceph RBD, S3, CephFS, NFS, ISCSI, SMB,.. hassle free.

With croit, you won't need an OS disk as the storage node gets live booted over the network using PXE. Depending on your requirements, CPU could be a bottleneck as well.
