  1. Yes, there are 2 drives in the build. drive 1: 7JW ( the correct drive to be mounted as disk 1) drive 2: V3N ( new drive added, that was not mounted previously in the arry nor used) The issue was finally resolved by selecting 7JW as disk2 in the array. Start the array -> Stop the array -> selecting it as disk 1 ( this time it worked) back again -> Start the array. So far everything seems to be working normally, hope that I didn't damaged anaything by doing the above workaround. V3N was installed yesterday in the build to be used as a parity disk but it's formated in NTFS and it has some WD programs on it so i wanted to install the preclear app to clean it and stress test it. After installing the preclear docker all of this happened. Not sure how to proceed next since I still need to use the disk as parity but don't want to install the preclear app and thorugh all this again.
  2. tried reinstalling unraid on the sub stick. Th bad GUI interface error has gone away but now i'm not able to mount my drive since i'm getting this error
  3. Hi, I have just installed the Binhex Prelear docker and right aftre the install my GUI looks like this (see attached snapshot) when I access it from the browser. I have unstiall the docker, rebooted several times but the UI still looks like innthe snapshot. Is there any way to repair this problem or do I need to reinstall unraid on my usb drive?
  4. Hi guys, I plan on building a nas server using unRaid and I need some advice on the hardware side. Currently i have an I5 6400 cpu and a GTX1050 graphics card. The server will be used mainly for Plex (4k transcoding will be needed) and running some VM's off of it, no gaming or any stuff like that. I mostly will be using the VMs for linux server and mac OS - web development stuff no photo or video processing . The problem that I'm facing is related to the cpu, it has only 4 cores with only 4 threads so if I need to run some dockers for plex or deluge and a VM in the same time it's basically running out of resources. Now i'm faced with a dilema rgarding what to do: 1. Buy a Ryzen 5 2600 (6 cores 12 therads) and a new mb with it, this will set me back about 200$ - transcoding will be needed but I hope to get the GTX1050 to do that 2.Buy a used Xeon processor but the trouble is that I'm not able to find a decent mb for it (only chinese knockoffs) at a reseonable price The main problem that I have is relating transcoding and VM. If I can't get the GTX1050 to do transcoding will I be able to use plex for streaming with the Ryzen? Also another question is relating to VM, if I go with the Ryzen cpu will I be able to run a mac OS VM using macinabox? by default mac OS does not support Ryzen so a lot of thinkering needs to be done. Just to mention, this is my first unraid build. I'm only testing out unraid for a few days now using the the i5 so i'm not very familiar with the challanges and issue that go along with any of the variants that I have. Some advice on this is much appreciated.
