I think about using Unraid on my Maincomputer using https://de.msi.com/Motherboard/B450-A-PRO-MAX, AMD 3900x and 64Gb Ram and 4x 8TB 5400 WD Drives and 2x 1TB SSD and 1x 2TB NVMe.
- Can I still run Windows 11 from my 2TB NVMe?
- What is the performance loss when I run Windows 11 as a VM?
What I like a lot about unraid is that:
- I do not have to have another computer to maintain and pay electricity
- benefit from parity and having all drives there instead of a lot spread around the house
- silent drives when not in use
- maybe automate offloading from filmprojects when attaching ssds
But what I do not need is:
- other functions of unraid like plugins
- and additional VM
So maybe you suggest to forget this idea.
