I have 2 routers. The 1st is owned by my ISP, the 2nd I use only as a bridge for the other 2 floors of the house. I have my unraid server connected to the 2nd one. Today my ISP changed my public IP and then called to inform for the change. But I can't access my Unraid server anymore from the PC (which is also connected to the 2nd router). I am not home at the moment so I can't confirm if I can access unraid directly, but If I can, what should I change in the settings to make it work like before? Also, all my containers and VMs are on br0, using local IP. Do I have to reconfigure everything again?

First of all, I would like to thank the community for the great support and tips all over the forum and so far I am in love with Unraid. I would also like to point that I am not very techy person but I am good in following tutorials so I had success with setting a media automation which works very well so far. I would like to make manual periodic backups (one per year or when significant changes have been made - new apps, settings, general updates etc.) to external SSD and/or USB flash, which wont be connected to anything once the backup is on it. So, I would appriciate some general tips and points which can help me. These are the things I want to backup: 1. Unraid settings 2. Docker containers with their individual settings, port mappings etc. 3. Since this unraid is mainly used for media server automation with plex and some arr apps + adguard, I don't need the media files, just the settings of the apps, aka I don't want to backup all the movies, tv series, songs and books that I have downloaded. 4. Got 1 Ubuntu VM with Litespeed server on it which I use for mail server and web server for 3 personal websites - I would very much like to backup these too. I mean I can probably export a backup from each website and skip the VM backup and in case of failure I could just rebuild a new VM and import the sites backups but isn't there a more convinient and faster method? Some notes: I have noticed that in My servers dashboard I have an option to "Generate a flash backup". What exactly does it backup? Is it only the Unraid settings without the docker apps settings and the VMs? Also, If I have that flash backup on my Windows PC, how to restore it in case of drive failure? Also, I am not sure how to restore a generated backup at all, not only the flash backup, so I would appreciate some tips for these too. Assuming I have all the backups on external ssd/usb and I put in my Unraid a completely fresh SSD and USB.

So, I got suggestion on Reddit to connect a compact 2nd hand NAS from ebay directly to the mini PC (Unraid server) with Ethernet cable. How will Unraid find the storage drives in the NAS?

Hello, I have an old HP Elitedesk 705 G4 Mini with the standard M2 SSD 256gb and 1 additional upgraded 2,5 SSD 1TB. This is the mini PC: https://support.hp.com/ee-en/document/c06101574 The PC is positioned in one of the cells below the TV: https://jysk.bg/dnevna/tv-postavki/tv-postavka-jungen-cvyat-tmen-db One of the other 2 cells is occupied by XBOX series s and its accessories. The space in each cell is 20x45 cm, and I can't position these things anywhere else, so I don't have much space. At the moment I can't upgrade the PC nor I have space for bigger one - maybe after AM5 release in the end of 2022 and after I finish the other 2 rooms. What are my options for expanding the storage?

I want to store videos there, for PLEX. I just don't see another option for my mini pc.

Can you recommend any? I am mainly looking for SSD only as I won't use HDD + I don't have much physical space so I am looking for a compact enclouser which can still hold 4+ disks. I will pair it with HP Elitedesk 705 G4 mini, which already have 1 nvme 256gb and another SSD inside. Read here and there that many of the enclousers are not well supported by Unraid so I am looking for something that works Thanks!

Hello I am looking forward to buy Unraid and I would like to know how I would host my WordPress sites? It would be great if there is a tutorial or something.
