Hello, I don't know why, I checked in my shares settings, SMB settings, network, permission and user settings. Everything seems fine. When for example I try to access my public share with movies from VLC over my smartphone or androTV.. everything works just fine. As soon as I want to play a movie from a Secured share, vlc will ask me for the appropriate user permissions. But it will also request it for every single subfolder and files of the secured share and I don't know why. That's very annoying. I want it to request the login infos only once, when I enter the secured share. Does anyone have an idea of where I should look into ? Thank you

Hi, I stumbled against a very common issue (as I realised when looking it up) with my windows 10 virtual machine. When I am in the Win10 vm, I try to copy and paste a file onto the desktop. As soon as I hit the paste cmd (either ctrl+v or the right-click box menu), there seems to be a loading (mouse displays a loading). After 1 or 2 seconds, the explorer.exe crashes and reload instantly and no file has been copied. I tried to copy/paste from a share over the network accessed from my vm to the desktop, from the vm c:\users\Download to the desktop. It keeps crashing-reloading every time. This is not related to the size of the file because I tried various file sizes. Now I know, this is a common problem unrelated to unRaid. It is a very known windows issue, and there are tons and tons of different ways to fix the issue that has worked for tons and tons of people, and every time that someone manage to fix it, they had to try 100 things that did not work for them before. I personally never experienced this problem before, until I install windows 10 as an unRaid vm, hence the following question; Is there anyone who might have experienced this problem with an unraid windows vm? Because I assume that maybe, just maybe, because the way the vm might be installed under the unraid system, it could drastically narrow down the causes of this issue? Maybe something I did not look at or details I am simply not aware of that needs to be checked? Only networking is my strong suit so.. in other words I am a newbie at this. This is a screenshot of my vm configuration and I will also put the Logs of my vm when running. please help, I have been looking up for days, all over the place, but the range of things to take into account is simply too wide. Thank you LOGS:

Since the transfert was initiated from my laptop, I doubt the process will follow through completely if I disconnect the laptop. Also I when I wrote that I have "no more internet because it crashed" I mean the WAN interface.. as if the router dealt with so much data, that it crashed for everything else but the two LAN port (of the router) involved. The LAN port connected to my laptop and the one connected to my NAS. When I started the transfert from the VM, I was accessing it from noVLC remote onto my laptop. No new firmware update available yet, and I'm using Merlin FW which are even more stable. I did not think of looking up if it was a common issue related to this particular router tho.. will do. But I doubt it. It has been pretty rock solid up till now. Thank you Edited: nothing seems to be comparable in what I could find on google excepted an old post on Cnet forum.. same type of problem with a RT-AC68u.. unsolved. https://www.cnet.com/forums/discussions/network-connection-drops-when-transferring-large-files-625354/ Kinda lost for now Will wait for more info from you guys and do some research on my side Thank you !

Hi everyone, ***First of all, sorry for the wall of text*** But I couldn't find anything like my issue out there. I just started with unRaid, and learning how to build my own NAS/VM server one roadblock after another. But that one I just don't get it... Did this ever happened to anyone else ? Everytime I want to transfer some files to my unRaid Array, if it's big enough, my whole network will end up crashing at some point. When it happens, I cannot access my router with any of my devices other than the NAS & laptop used to initiate it. As if the router was to overloaded and pushed out anything else. After the transfert, regardless of if the task will be completed without any error, I can eventually reconnect to my router, but the internet access from my router is impossible, I absolutely have to unplug/replug my router. I tried to transfer some files twice: First time: via a laptop with Ubuntu. With the help of the plugin "unAssigned", I mounted an unassigned SSD with data I wanted to copy to my array. First transfert : Unassigned ssd smb shared to my laptop from my unRaid NAS, I accessed the 2 shares to copy data from one to another *unRaid unassigned ssd--> router --> laptop --> router --> unRaid Array The whole 170Gb copied completely, but lost internet, and everything else got drop off my wifi. Second transfert Same steps but from a Windows10 VM from within the unRaid Array. This time the transfert could not go through completely (transfert stopped with an error 0x8007003A) , and once again made crash my router the same way with no internet no more. 😢 Is there an important setting I should check that would be majorly important ? Or should I just upgrade my network infrastructure because that one I just bought simply cannot handle it ? Router: Asus RT-AX92u All my ethernet port used are 1 Gigabit Ethernet. Thank you

Thank you !

Hi, since I really don't know where to look for that answer, I am just going to ask it here: Is there any advantages in having larger size hdd for parity versus same size parity/array's hdd ? Let's say I have an array of 8 hdd of 4Tb, if my parity is a 14TB hdd rather than a 4Tb hdd, is it going to tolerate the lost of 2x 4tb or 3x 4tb HDDs ? Thank you
