Run Truenas bare metal vs on Proxmox

Hello, I want to setup a home server with several services like Jellyfin, Pihole, VPN service and Truenas. I have 2 PC's available and am wondering what would be better to manage setup. On device one I'm hosting all the services and on device two I want to run Truenas. So my question is, are there benefits on running Truenas on Proxmox vs bare metal?

Thanks in advance!
