Thanks. I've got cables ordered! I appreciate this..

Hey all. I have a UNRAID system that is humming along and I'm trying to add a new drive to the system but I cannot get the bios of my machine to even recognize the drive no matter what combination of cables i use (even a combo of one that is currently working with a current drive. My motherboard is a GIGABYTE Z370 Aorus Gaming 7 and I currently have 3 WD Red NAS drives installed. The drives have connectors that look like the one here: sata connectors on one side and two jumper pins. the new drive looks like this... with 8 pins at first i thought I had a drive failure so I sent it back to the manufacturer to get a new one... but just like the last drive, it won't show up in the bios even when i swap this drive out for one of the ones that is currently working (same cables, etc) Is there something that I'm missing with these drives that have 8 pins for the "jumper section" instead of 2? It's like the drive is never getting power as i don't feel it spinning up when it starts... Thanks. edit: I do also have a cache drive installed on the motherboard. I know that can give issues with sata availability to some motherboards... but that should have tested out by swapping the hard drive out for an existing one using the same cables

Same here. Thought I'd upload my diags here as well in case it helps with troubleshooting.... homeunraid-diagnostics-20220929-2334.zip

Just started receiving the error: Out Of Memory errors detected on your server After my upgrade to 6.11.0. Anyone know of any issues with the upgrade that would seem to cause memory issues? I've attached diags. Could have something to do with smdb max open files being reached. Haven't really been performing anything on the server since the upgrade. Thanks. homeunraid-diagnostics-20220929-2220.zip

Hello all. First time poster. Loving what I'm seeing out of Unraid so far and after looking at FreeNAS and running 2 QNAP servers at home I've decided I need a dedicated file server for the office and Unraid seems to be the best of all worlds. I'm moving to an M1 iMac from my hackintosh build I've currently got in place and I'd like to use that hardware to build my Unraid server. I've already downloaded the image and run a test server for a weekend so the hardware definitely seems capable. This server will be mainly used as a file server in a mixed Win/Mac environment (although mainly Mac) but I will probably also use it with a VPN docker. Not much else to start off. I do imagine I'm going to be building something new at home to replace my QNAP servers that I use for photos/editing/PLEX as I'm sick of the speed issues there but that's for another day.... Here's what I currently have in place for the hardware: i7-8700 Gigabyte Z370 32GB (16x2) Corsair DRAM (3kMHz) Samsung 970 Pro 512 NVMe Termaltake Water 3.0 Cooling Sapphire Radeon EVGA 750 BQ 80+ Bronze 750w Power Supply Phanteks Pro M Series (PH-ES515PTG_BK) case I'm looking for advise as to what to throw at it drive wise and if I need any sort of controllers or if I can just attach them to the board. I suppose it would be nice to have a SATA enclosure that would allow me to easily swap out drives. I just don't know how it's best to handle the NVMe as I'll probably just be booting the OS off of a flash drive as I've been doing during this test phase. I'll want to have a parity drive in place and my space requirements are modest -- probably 4TB but I'm figuring I'll just configure for 8-10 while I'm at it. My biggest requirement is that I'll want to optimize for speed of file access across the network. I will also put a dedicated 10GB card in as the onboard NIC only is 1GB (I believe). Thanks in advance. Excited to be 'official' and to be part of the community. Jason
