  1. is there anything i can do on my side when the auto fan plugin doesnt detect any PWM controllers?

     

    I know the system has one as every fan header supports PWM and each header can be controlled individually in the BIOS but this plugin doesnt see any sadly.

    Cheers, I have just changed it to a Samsung evo 970 nvme :)

    another few things to consider, you are buying a pretty expensive case that is basically a normal case you could have much cheaper ones than this, same for the motherboard.

     

    If you are fine with an expensive case but want something more compact consider the Silverstone 381.

    Its a good case but pretty expensive given that you probably also wanna swap out the fans.

     

    Heres my build, i already had all the drives so it doesnt show a price for them.

    The DS3H motherboard is one of the few that has two full m.2 4x slots and only disables one of the 6 SATA ports if you use it.

    But keep in mind both 4x slots go through the same 4x link from the chipset to the CPU so you will never get full performance from both at the same time.

    The cheaper motherboard saves a ton of cost and since the  10100 is hard limited to 2666mhz RAM you can also save a ton there.

    Overall the build is pretty nice but if i would do this again i would probably choose a different much cheaper case and live with the fact that its not compact by any means as with the 381 HDD cooling is rather limited and it has a TON of screws which is nice for its solid build quality but sucks for the initial setup as you will undo like 40 screws initially but since that is a 1 time effort its not really a big deal.

  3. as someone who has an Unraid NAS with an i3 10100 i can say its plenty fast for the job and does everything i need without any issues.

     

    One very important little detail i just learned is if you want to use NVME SSD´s as a cache i strongly advise you to get an HBA to attach your normal drives to.

    On all current Intel platforms the NVME slots go through the chipset to the CPU and the chipset is only attached with a PCI-E 3.0 4x link si thats a HUGE bottleneck.

    Attaching all my drives to an HBA doubled my transfer speeds from the NVM cache to the array.

    OK, in that case you should be fine.

    i have just done the switch to the Intel HBA and it did indeed just work out of the box without any issues, if anyone is still maintaining the hardware compatibility wiki the J variant could be added there.

     

    Also this HBA doubled my write speeds when going from my cache to the array which proves my suspicion that this was another case of Intels bandwidth bottleneck to the chipset as on the H470 chipset they attached two m.2 4x slots and 5 SATA ports as well as all USB and network controllers via a single PCI-E 3.0 4x link to the CPU.

    Now that all my drives are attached via different PCI-E lanes this link from the Chipset is clear to be used basically only by my NVME SSD´s making everything much faster.

    That is a RAID controller, it might still work or be flashable to IT mode, IT mode not always the same as JBOD, if you use a true HBA then it's plug'n play.

    according to intel the RS3UC080 is the version that defaults to RAID while the J version defaults to JBOD unless you flash a RAID firmware.

    The product page for the J version also says RAID Support: None

    https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000022720/server-products/raid-products.html

     

    So that means i should expect it to work just like a plain HBA?

    Do you download directly to the NAS?

    If only cache could be used as a read cache too...

    yes im running some stuff on the NAS that directly downloads to it.

    Im still going this from the time when my internet was slow and downloads took a long time, now that my internet is super fast i dont technically need to do that anymore but its pretty convenient.

     

    Cache drives are used a read cache if you set the share to cache only or prefer but it really depends on which what data you put on the drives if it will make any difference for you.

  7. full disclosure im not really an Unraid pro as im only using it for a month now but my experience with SSD cache so far has been that i feel like my 250GB cache was not always enough for my needs.

     

    Personally i got 2 250GB NVME SSD´s, one is for Appdata and basically everything that is constantly running and this seems fine so far in terms of space.

    The other one is used for some shares that i liked to have cached one of which is my download share because unpacking archives is just so much faster if it happens on an SSD.

     

    The one for downloads is getting full quite often and im already looking into getting another SSD with 500GB or 1TB so i can cache some other shares as well.

     

    In your situation i would think about what you gonna use the cache for, if you never download like 100GB in a day and wanna have this cached you will probably be fine with the smaller drives but as usual once you get the hang of it demand increases.

  8. Hello People.

     

    i currently have the use SSL setting on auto which means whenever i navigate to my servers ip address i get redirected to some blbla.unraid.net address.

    This works fine on my computer but from my phone that is in the same network via wifi it fails to load the page.

     

    on the other hand when i set this to no i can connect via my ip on the mobile phone and login without any problems while on my PC the page loads but when i log in nothing happens i just stay on the login page.

     

    So currently either of these solutions has a problem but im sure there must be one that simply works?

    Also how would i go about using an SSL certificate created by the SWAG docker container instead if that is possible?

  9. Hello People,

     

    im currently looking for an HBA to use for my NAS, im not in any hurry to get it so i am primarily looking on ebay to find a deal on a used one.

    Now i found multiple HBA´s that support SAS 12G and SATA 6G but i cant find any details if that means i can only use one or the other or if i can mix them as i like.

     

    Lets say i get an HBA with this chip

    https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/76066/intel-raid-controller-rs3uc080.html

    I would connect it via the SFF8643 ports to the backplanes of my case which also have SFF8643 ports.

    The backplane also supports 12G SAS and 6G SATA so am i right to assume that it should be no problem at all to mix between SAS and SATA drives on the same backplane?

     

    beside if its technically possible is there anything i should expect in terms of problems when i do this, would it make more sense to stick to SATA only or to have one backplane that only uses SATA drives and the other one with SAS drives?

     

    does any of this matter at all?

    I will look into the first one but the other 3 doesn't work "the right" way, looked a bit on the issues and none of them seem to work or at least good...

     

    EDIT: I now saw that the first one is 4 years old...

    yea none of these are properly maintained sadly but on the bright side that means you could have the one up to date and functional space engineers docker container.

    This is a game without Linux in mind and tried already a few times but never get it to run or at least run stable.

     

    Can you give me a link to those? Are you sure that they are Linux based and working for at least more than 10 minutes?

    i have never tested the containers i found so i cant really tell if they are any good, i just thought the existence of them seem to indicate that it could work but now that you say that one of them says the performance sucks.

     

    Ill probably run the original files in a Window VM instead to avoid any problems.

    Did you try with the "privileged" switched on ? (in the settings of the filebot docker)

    yes but that didnt change anything sadly.

    The container seems to have no problems with this folders its just that my own user is not allowed to write to them.

     

    Edit: i think i have solved this now.
    i created the folders manually with my own user before starting the container so now my own user is allowed to write to them and the container is as well.

    previously the folders were created by the container itself and that didnt work out too well.

  13. im running into the problem that i dont seem to have any write permissions in the /watch folder so i sadly can not test if my AMC script is working as intended.

     

    Also i had a strange thing happen when i used the GUI to change some names.

    I set it up to sort the files into some folders and when it ran this on a different share which does not have this folder structure yet it did create it but on a share level.

     

    So i have a share for TV Series which cache disabled and a downloads share that is cache only, when i ran my renaming i suddenly had the TV series structure on my cache drive and had to set it to cache yes and run mover to have the files moved of the drive.

    I guess this is something with my settings but if i could get the AMC to run and have permissions on this folder this should be no problem.

     

    So the important question why do i have no permissions on the/watch folder and how do i fix that?

    BTW, the whole purpose of the script I proposed before was to achieve the same:

    4K transcode with HDR to SDR tone mapping.
    So this new approach is meant to be easier.

    well if that is the case there still seems to be something wrong with my setup.

    i got hardware transcoding up and running and i can see the iGPU doing its work but when i play a 4K HDR movie via the PLEX app on my Android TV it just instantly throws an error without any meaning full message and doesnt even try to transcode anything.

    Same thing happened in the plex app on my 4k none HDR TV

     

    Any idea if this is still related to hardware transcoding or usually something else?

  15. @mmz06

    how long did the reboot after updating take for you?

    im waiting for like 5 minutes now for it to reboot and i fear its stuck booting for some reason now.

    ignore that i figured it out, it was booting fine but it used the onboard NIC as the primary so i couldnt connect to it.

     

    finally got everything up and running again and ran your script again, this time with the expected result and i can also see the iGPU going to work when i run a video.

     

    So your script is the solution but requires the latest RC to work, do i need to do anything after a reboot or should all changes be permanent?

    @Pixel5 it seems the compilation didn't go right for your CPU...

    Which CPU are you using ?

    This requires Linuxserver.io

    Are you using this plex version  or another one?

     

    Should you provide the 20 lines of the execution above the one you provides ?

     

    initially i was using another plex container but i switched over to linuxserver.io with the exact same result.

    The CPU im using is the i3-10100
