  1. My error in original post .. meant to say "3TB unsupported in stable version". I assumed the usb drives will be shipped with the stable 4.7 release which doesn't support 3TB. My concern was regarding: 1. using the pro license. I bought the pro license which will be tied to the usb drive hardware and not what version of unraid it runs. I want to confirm that removing the stable version and replacing it with v5 rc8 should be fine. 2. Given my proposed usage and a newbie with unraid, is there any concern in using the v5 rc as my primary unraid server?
  2. Newbie here, I have ordered pro version (on its way) and realized today that the release stable candidate doesn't support 3 TB HDD. My parity HDD will be a 3TB WD Red with a bunch of mixed disks, 9 disks total ranging between 1-2 TB. I assume the usb stick will be shipped with the stable version. If I delete the files from the limetech usb drive and load it with the rc v5 candidate, am I good to go? Is the release candidate stable enough to start building my raid server? To begin with, I am not looking for anything fancy .. about 8TB of raid'ed storage, squeezebox server and a usenet client. I thought I did my research on the unraid features before making a plunge but guess not. With a 1 yr boy and a demanding job, hobby time becomes very limited. Help appreciated, thanks folks.
