Best method for disk sharing in QEMU/Libvirt?

I run several VMs in Libvirt, host is Debian 12. I’m want to create one dedicated to Samba sharing. What is the best way to expose more disks to a QEMU host? I have 6 SSDs I want to utilize on this VM.

  1. Creating a filesystem hardware node (virtiofs or virtio-9p)?
  2. A physical disk exposed to the VM via a Storage hardware node?
  3. Something more exotic like a zfs storage pool?

Best for me is more about reliability than anything else. I have tried sharing folders before using the Filesystem hardware node and Plan 9 but it was a little wonky when it came to permissions. I may not have set it up right, however.
