After shutting down my windows 10 vm and trying to apply an overclock to my 7700K, when I booted unraid back up, I got the error "Libvert service failed to start." I've googled around and seen a lot of different scenarios where this might happen, but can't seem to apply any of the advice to my situation. As far as I can tell, my libvert.img is where it's supposed to be...I haven't changed anything since it was working besides the overclock. I undid the overclock and am getting the same errors. I attached the tools-diagnostic file. Thank you for any help! gamingnas-diagnostics-20200530-1419.zip

Hi there, Total noob here coming from the 2015 Linus video... I've been wanting to build a NAS for a long time, and for a really long time have been looking at a dual mobo arrangement, but after coming across the LTT video, I thought this would be a really cool space to get into, but am a little worried about a couple things being compatible with my current usage, hopefully you guys can let me know if this will work. Current Specs: CPU - 7700K RAM - 32GB 2400mhz MOBO - Gigabyte z170 sli xp GPU - 1080ti Hard drives: recently bought four 4TB NAS drives and another 1TB SSD to go along with my current 1TB SSD, per LTT instructions. I mainly use the machine for gaming/hosting media, home recording studio, light video editing, print layout production, etc. Concerns: Audio: I live in a very small house. My PC and 3440x1440 gaming monitor are in my office, and then I route cables through a wall to a 4KTV directly on the other side of the wall which is the living room. Due to this constant switching around depending on what kind of game I want to play, I switch between a lot of different audio inputs and outputs, including: Gaming monitor speakers Headset out of the front panel 5.1 outputs out of the motherboard which feeds my receiver/TV USB laptop dock in front of the TV I sometimes plug a headset into USB audio interface for recording music Will all these be able to be passed through properly/easily? Horsepower: In the LTT video, he's using a 6700K, which is pretty similar to my 7700K, but that was 5 years ago... will my 7700K be enough to handle NAS/gaming at 4K60 and 1440p120hz? I don't mind taking a little hit on performance, but don't want to lose out too much. At heart, I am more of a tinkerer than a gamer, although I do play a lot of video games haha. This project really excites me, but I'm particularly worried about my various peripherals and USB devices working properly. Thanks for all your help!! PS: also, would love to hear other creative things people have done with an unRAID set up like this!
