  1. Hi Jorge, True. I have a spare 2TB doing nothing. I could pop that in to get it up and running. Now that you mentioned that it reminded me of something else. That SSD can also be overflow protection in case the apps/vm cache fills up. Thx Jorge! 😁🤘
  2. Hey everyone, I apologize if this has been talked about already. If so could someone link me. Here's what I was thinking. I want the great UI/UX of unraid but I don't want to use it for storage. I want to take a play from my enterprise world and have separate storage and compute boxes. My current unraid has an array of 5 HDD's and a cache pool with 2 SSD's in a mirror to run apps/vm's. Plus a dedicated NVME for downloads to extract on. The new compute box I'm looking to do the same thing just minus the HDD's. However, I guess I have to put something for the array?
  3. 😮 that wash my problem!!! Second thanks. Just upgraded and all the usual drive upgrade steps are a go.
  4. 😮 idk why i didnt see those sliders before! This is fantastic. I tweaked them and boom! under <100 Kbps while its displaying a sync. Actually different from the screenshot, now i have quality and compression left. I watched task manager go up and down as I moved them. Thank you very much!
  5. Hey ich777, Thanks for the super speedy reply. I'll go in reverse order of your quotes. 2nd reply, "Doh! sorry meant to say the CPU of my laptop watching DirSyncPro, not the unRAID CPU." No worries about the server cpu, its an E3-1270 v5 and 32GB of ram. 1st reply. Ah gotcha, that does make sense. I'm just surprised at how much the traffic drops on my laptop viewing DirSyncPro. From 120 Mbps to <100 Kbps. Dropped another screenshot of that. I have not adjusted any quality settings for noVNC. I wouldn't mind though tweaking it to a bit lower. It's a backup utility I don't care about visual quality. lol
  6. Hi everyone, Sorry if this has already been covered. New to unRAID and this app. I thought today i'd give DirSyncPro a try to backup all my media from unRAID to another NAS box. I setup my job and kicked off a sync. After a minute or so I noticed the fan on my laptop go into high gear. "Well that is strange, i'm not doing anything intensive." Popped open task manager and chrome is doing a ton of receiving traffic. I closed the tab that was watching DirSyncPro and usage dropped. Attached is a screenshot of it in action. I'm a little baffled why this is happening. I get the impression the file transfers are going THRU my machine. Which makes no sense of course. Perhaps there is a setting to adjust? Or could it be a byproduct of vnc in the tab to DirSyncPro? Regards, Rich
