  1. Hi there, Does anyone from Europe face issues with the GDPR consent since today in Whoogle? No matter what Query I get the consent and none of the buttons work for me. It is already reported here to the Whoogle project: https://github.com/benbusby/whoogle-search/issues/1053 But I don't know how to set that cookie or a VPN to outside the EU as workaround if I just installed it on unraid using this package? Any help is appreciated. EDIT: I was able to just "Console into" Whoogle and change ~/app/request.py using vi and it works for the moment, however as soon as I upgrade, that file will get overwritten, as it is not on a volume but part of the docker image provided. But maybe this helps other users with the same issue who have Whoogle set as default search on their systems like me.
  2. I had a slightly different problem. I can see the disk share but was unable to access it, even with a user that has access and that works on VMs and the WebGUI. So I set the option "Add 'force user = nobody' to SMB share config?" and then I was able to read from the share but I am unable to write. If I want to create or delete files/folders Windows keeps telling me that I need permission. I was able to do writing before the update. So I disabled that Add force... option again and now everything works as before. Don't know if this toggling helps others as well. My SMB Security is set to Yes and the user i'm using has Read/Write Access to all shares.
  3. So I finally tried your suggestion @Dtrain but I just got the errors seen in the image. I found out that some people with similar hardware suggested the following kernel config, would it be a bad idea to modify the append line as suggested here like so or would that break Unraid, I can always just pop the stick into my machine and fix it, right? EDIT: Got it working, I forgot to set some BIOS options, namely "Above 4G decoding", "Re-Size BAR" and in a completely different section called AMD PBS to simply enable Thunderbolt support with no security, thanks Asrock. Now I see the thunderbolt drives, yay! Don't even know if I need the boot config. append initrd=/bzroot pci=realloc,assign-busses,hpbussize=0x33
  4. Exactly, the dream of management called "synergy effects", but sometimes reality kicks in early enough and they see in time that they'll lose too many valuable customers if not homogenized properly like allowing higher tolerances to use same parts on multiple products or reducing QA in order to save on costs. Those high profile customers will notice and then move away to Toshiba and Seagate which hurts the bottom way line more than keeping them happy.
  5. Well considering this, comparing just brands as a whole is not very accurate anymore, Seagate, Western Digital and Toshiba have merged in almost any other company like Fujitsu, HGST, Samsung, Maxtor, Conner etc. and i.e. WD Ultrastar are totally different to the WD <color> products and more like some Toshiba drives. I'd think the WD Ultrastar drives are made by the same processes and with some of the same people that did it under HGST while WD black/blue drives are made like the Caviar drives.
  6. Oh thanks a lot so I was just looking in the wrong directory /sys/bus/thunderbolt for such a function... I'll try out this weekend. Didn't thought about that it might be on the PCI.
  7. @MrGrey of course, Backups are a different thing to me and were never part of this discussion. I'm working on an external 8-bay thunderbolt box but I can't get it to show up yet but that would be my backup destination. For now I have a perfect backup thanks to the migration. I was just curious if 2nd parity would give me quality of life improvements over those that come with having peace of mind when 2 data drives failing simultaneously.
  8. I have the same issue on different hardware running unraid 6.10. I'm trying to use an OWC ThunderBay 8 with a Gigabyte Titan Ridge GC 2.0 and an Asrock motherboard which does have a TB3 connector. I did not short any pins as I can just connect them to the mainboard. I can see the Titan Ridge in lspci. I have enabled udev rules to authorize all devices but when I turn on the ThunderBay all I see in dmesg is this: [20065.354797] thunderbolt 0-1: new device found, vendor=0x5a device=0xde19 [20065.354803] thunderbolt 0-1: Other World Computing ThunderBay 8 I can see /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0 for the Titan Ridge and 0-1 for the ThunderBay 8. Now How do I now mount the disks?
  9. Good catch! Actually I double checked because 64% seemed not enough and then discovered I did one HUGE mistake with the share cache settings and deleting files because it was so full it mounted read-only and me thinking it wasn't able to delete files that should've been copied back to array when I actually set it to move from array to cache... Luckily old unRAID disks can be remounted easily after changing UID with btrfstune and files restored with rsync. Now I'm at 66% and the mover is doing the right thing keeping the cache low and only keeping appdata in there.
  10. For the moment I look onto the dashboard at least once a day but notifications are the next thing I'll set up. Thank you for your advice.
  11. Hi there I've successfully merged all my distributed network storage to a Ryzen 5800X based Unraid server. Before it had 2 x 2TB data + 1 x 2TB parity now it has 6 x 18TB + 1 x 18TB parity drive. The array is at 64% storage utilization. I now have one last 18 TB drive which I'm currently preclearing to check for any errors. Would you add this one as parity 2 or pack it up and store it safely as a cold spare? If I were to use it as Parity 2 I should search some 5.25 inch brackets as my 4U rack case has only space for 7x 3.5inch drives. But I'm not sure if there's an advantage of having a 2nd parity vs beign able to quickly replace a failed drive?
  12. WD Ultrastar HC550 since they can be had for around 18€ per TB at 18TB and work since 8 months and are HGST heritage seems like a no-brainer. I have had Seagate IronWolfs, they still live but they're slow compared to Data Center grade drives and not cheaper at least here and these days.
  13. Thanks CobraPL I went for another case that was significantly cheaper (Silverstone SG11) that had a tad more cooling space as well. I found a NH-L9x65 SE quite cheap because it was an open box return. I replaced the Fan with a NF-A9 which is already quite a bit better, maybe I should still consider 12mm... I'll see how the Temps go. I have it all set up already and TVHeadend works. I had to fiddle in the si2165 firmware manually (I do it by running a user script at Array Start that copies it from Many thanks for the BIOS tips, could you tell me what CPPC stands for? I'll check all those settings the next time I reboot the machine. And I'll have a look if I find a good USB stick, I picked up a Sandisk Ultra-Fit because it don't like sticks hanging out. I really admit now how useful it was that HP put a real USB on the Motherboard. Maybe I'll buy one of those Pin-Adapters but as the board doesn't even feature onboard USB 2.0 headers I might need an internal hub, those are very rare unfortunately I once paid 50$ for one. Thanks for letting me know about the USB 3.0 stick failing. I'll still install a Mellanox 4-LX card to have a full 25 GBit/s link to connect to MikroTik with 10GBit/s fallback. To me it seems the Intel X550 is vastly superior to the Aquantia Card I had in my MicroServer. Actually I went for 5800X it was only a few francs (325 vs 377) more expensive than the 3800X and I thought why not spend a little bit more for a bit more recent chip that tends to be either a tad faster or a tad more efficient. Concerning SATA-disabling: It is funny how the BIOS stops detecting some drives but in UnRAID I can use everything. But I am only using NVMe-sticks no SATA-M.2-SSDs. But other than that great Server I have here: Windows Server 2012 R2 boots inside a VM in like 3 Seconds and logging on takes not longer than a blink of an eye. It takes anything I throw at it.
  14. Maybe your Modem/Router won't allow coming back over external networks. Maybe you find an Option that is either called "NAT loopback" or "NAT hairpin" I think turning that on could solve your issue although I'm not sure if you really want that or you'd better access internally with an address that is not routed out and back in.
  15. Hi there I started using unRAID on my HP MicroServer Gen8 I picked up many years ago new on sale for 499$. It was the higher spec'd Xeon E1220L version but it is old by today's standard rocking two hyperthreaded 2.6 GHz Ivy-Bridge cores. I have home assistant, Pi-hole, an Nginx, DNS-Services and a Windows Server 2016 VM and here it is coming to a limit. I thought 8 cores might be just the right amount for my use cases (for like 3-4 VMs to play around, a dozen docker apps, some scripts for home automation, pfsense, unbound and LDAP services, light web hosting for internal webapps, elastic-search, you get the idea) as it would run this setup easily and have quite a bit of room to spare. I know the Gen10 Plus MicroServer is a quad-core but I don't like the external power brick and also I want something that I can tinker with later. And also I will change my ISP in April and will get 25 GBit/s so maybe good to get ready for PCIe 4.0 now So I thought I take my unused parts and the disks out of my MicroServer and build a rig like this: Motherboard AsRock X570D4U-2L2T seems decent and has some IPMI features and it also has two 10gig-NICs with Intel chips, thumbs up! Case Silverstone SST-ML04B Milo that should fit nicely above the MikroTik CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS 64 GB ECC unbuffered RAM 2x M.2 SSD as Cache drives Existing 3x4TB drives for array and parity Existing 750W PSU should be enough Now my question is, should I go for the Ryzen 7 3800X, PRO 4750G, 5700G, 5800X something completely different? To me it seems they're extremely close to each other in terms of price and clock speed, the Gs feature onboard video which I don't really need I suppose and as far as I understand it won't work with ECC memory right? But maybe someone can tell me something about PCIe 4.0 compatibility? The shop I looked at stated that only the 3800X and the 5800X are PCIe 4.0 compatible while the 4750G and 5700G ain't? But that seems very odd to me. I'm very grateful for any suggestions or ideas.
  16. This issues were so frustrating I stopped using SMB on unraid completely and switched to WinSCP and it works rock solid with no complaints. Can't recommend enough to new users if you don't plan to use your unraid as a NAS but just to configure your dockers, upload ISOs and such.
  17. EDIT: I fixed the problem by adding a custom variable called "CERTBOT_DOMAIN" and putting in my domain name without the "duckdns.org" part, then the server started and was reachable with a valid SSL cert! Yay! I hope I didn't break something and this is a small glitch in a chain of many tools??? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, I'm trying to get DNS-over-HTTPS for my dumb Android phones, it seems Google is too greedy to let you define your own DNS while still getting an address over DHCP, a thing that every Computer and even iOS devices can do... Well I installed Swag and I tried everything from Port Mapping with 81/444 as suggested and using another IP completely together with all Port Forwarding but it always fails the challenge. I assume that only problem is the curl doesn't have the correct address (see error message Can't resolve host below) but where do I have to change it to include the duckdns-Address? it tries to curl <DUCKDNSTOKEN>&txt=<CHALLENGETEXT> which does not have http://... in front. In the error message it shows the Token I tried putting in manually so I'm pretty sure it just curls wrongly! Can you tell me where I have to fix that? Here's the log output:
