Process to move VMs from Proxmox 7.2 to TrueNAS SCALE?

Been scouring the internet for a bit, but can't find any information. I can access my qcows but would like to move all my virtualization to one system. I already have a load of user data (saved progress in Plex VM) that I don't want to have to write down for each EU that has access and keep track. 

 

Is there a way to move the QCow to TrueNAS and use it for both NAS and Hypervisor?

Why do you want to do that? Why not just keep using proxmox? I run truenas under proxmox, best of both worlds….

Truenas scale supports containers and VMs so can replace proxmox altogether, trying it out these days...

Also just to actually help answer the question even tho I still hold that just using proxmox is best, use Clonezilla to copy VM’s or even bare metal installs from place to place. It’s a great bit of free software.
