Would there be any performance gain from storing Hyper-V VHDX on a TrueNAS to take advantage of ZFS ?

Hi /r/homelab

I’ve a single HyperV host running Windows Server 2022 setup with DDR5 64 GB of RAM running on a custom built ASUS motherboard with Intel Core i9-12900K and x2 1TB NVME drives.

Currently I create my Hyper-V VMs and store the VHDX on DAS (directly on the NVME drives) as opposed to storing them within a physical or virtual NAS.

I’m wondering if I create a virtual TrueNAS VM (btw I do not have experience with NAS or TrueNAS) would there be any performance gains from doing so by leveraging ZFS instead of the native NTFS ?

Sorry I’m really new to this. Thanks so much in advance.
