    Thanks for an idea about HPA, will take a look how to do that and yes, the difference in size was really small in both tested variants.. i was wondering about lack of an option not to use a whole drive - we all know how drive performance is affected when we read/write to inner sectors.. Hi all, i will just confirm, HPA was setup on my test server and now test array is up and running with 2x 1TB Raid 0 as parity and one 2TB disk. in this config i lose about 1.1GB of space - that's acceptable and raid 0 will spin down too cos my Dell H710P supports it..

    Clearly that will work fine -- good thing the size works out (I just confirmed that this is universally true -- at least for the drives I checked (1TB, 1.5TB, 2TB, 3TB, 4TB, and 6TB in addition to this 8TB) => i.e. 2 x any drive has more bytes than the single drive of the same size. I suspect that's not at all coincidental Hi, I just did a few tests on my test server with two disk Raid 0 as parity drive and have no success. i tried 2 configurations: - 2x 1TB in Raid 0 and one 2TB drive - 2TB disk was larger in size than Raid 0 volume - 2x 2TB in Raid 0 and one 4TB drive - 4TB disk was larger in size than Raid 0 volume i'm using Dell Perc H710P as Raid controller. what i'm doing wrong?

    rsync GUI

    uldise replied to dgaschk's topic in Feature Requests

    Can you install Wembin on top of new unraid? this web admin tool has very much options/modules, rsync config too..

    Hi, IMHO, Sata3 is a big marketing unless you use them for SSD. For UnRAID Sata2 is more than enough. If you move to virtualization, ESXi way for example, then processor/motherboard with vt-d should be the first choice. Expansion card, like IBM M1015, is not very expensive, you could buy them on Ebay. Many of us, including me, are running ESXi fine with M1015 in IT mode passed to unRAID.
