RoTalk

Not sure why that got check marked, but unchecked it... I ended up deleting the VM and re-adding/connect it, but now my priority is to stop the array which is not doing it and every time I shutdown or reboot comes back with unclean reboot and might have an issue, I also noticed, that I did some ISO find in terminal and /mnt/user/<someshare> was returning file disk error etc, I'll just turn it off, and wait for my larger drive to show up and backup my entire /mnt/user/<shares*> before I mess around more.. Thanks again for the feedback on that..

I give up, I rebuilt 3 times so far, did parity and seems that I can screw up the drives on demand by just starting a VM and get errors. I attached some fresh daigs and some screen shots. I am waiting on a bigger drive to backup my entire server in case this goes all south. One odd thing upon boot-up suddenly the unassigned drives show the 2-3 drives odd, but above show normal, might always be that the drives are on the same connector and will swap cable just in case. During checks, rebuilt I always did it in safe mode, or maintenance mode to be sure, I'm also wondering if there is a plugin issue at play and if others have had issues with any that I should disable.

I had the same incident an hour or so ago, but I'm not going to hijack the thread as I have a separate post altogether, but I'm curious if I missed something before I rebuild my drive. Did you get yours figured out?

Hello Everyone, I must've rushed to upgrade before finishing my process to remove 1 or 2 cache drives to replace it by a bigger nvme m2 drive. After upgrading, rebooting, I noticed that when I logged into the GUI I had some red alerts stating couldn't write to some directory and I closed it without screenshot, later noticed 1-2 tings additional happening but after another reboot I noticed Disk5 being disabled. I did quick smart check and all came back. Did extended check all clear, now being emulated. I might also might have bumped or touched the wires or something might have happened when I removed 2 drives from the cache that were 1, ssd, and one a regular laptop drive and replaced with nvme m2. So I checked the cables and re-secured them. The extended SMART I inadvertently cancelled it when I clicked on Drive 5/and spun it down, I'm re-running the extended smart but also needed to know if I am good to go with the disk 5 rebuilt onto itself and because I'm new to unRaid I needed someone's opinion if there's more to my troubles. I was about to follow the https://wiki.unraid.net/Manual/Storage_Management#Rebuilding_a_drive_onto_itself process. Hit me up if you have time and I'll cover coffee while checking my logs.. Thanks,

I had the opposite experience for a bit. - I had my DP and HDMI plugged in, I can see the prompt while Unraid booting up. - I somehow went into one of my Win11 VMs settings and attempted to use the GUI to add the GTX 1660 as a drop down and sound. - I clicked update and clicked start. I immediately saw my monitor go dark, but noticed that my Windows VM was running/or started without giving me some pop-up error. - I was able to RDP into the machine and sure enough there was my NVIDIA card, I was able to install the drivers, reboot several times all working. Update: I confirmed that the GUI Changes/Settings in this build works fine out of box and no xml hacks. Anyone can confirm? I am now able to assign gpu, + sound in the main gui and fire up the machine fine, I couldn't connect last time because dhcp/once I assigned static I can rdp every time without issue. When you first setup the win11/x machine you'll need vnc, after gpu pass-through works.

Touching the file fixes till you reboot again and comes back. I did not disable the plug-in but what fixed it for me is I signed out of the plugin and the error went away.

For the ones reading, I had mine somehow cancel or stop, even though running overnight and so on. Mine was 20+ days @ 2/mbit which was a bit crazy so what fixed for me was to reboot in "safe" mode and start parity. It went from typical 95/105/mbit up to 198 to 203/mbit/sec which is huge improvement. Went from 25+ days to 1 day + 8 hours @ 98/105/mbit/sec to 15 hrs @ 200/mbit/sec. Much improvement and hope it finishes it. I will also expand parity to monthly or every time hardware change vs weekly on Mon.

Mine is x264 from a GoPro and these videos are fairly short and I would miss the blip on the transcoders. If I was to watch a longer video of 2 minutes plus it would show briefly until the cash is into RAM for the video card and transcode. Previously I was doing direct view at its original resolution and no transcoding was needed that's why I was not seeing it. Stepping down to 720 or 1080p it would show.

It actually works, nvidia-smi / watch does show the trans-coding and the plex (hw), I just had to mark my player to lower quality and not original.

I'm reading a lot of posts about not working. I've followed the space invaders how to and still nothing. Am I missing something new?

Thanks for the feedback, I did consider the "G" but this was on sale, for dirt cheap and snatched it. I noticed as well that this is an overkill for a UnRaid nas box but some of the parts were either comp so I got some decent hardware including several 12tb/red/nas and M.2 Samsung 980 Pro that was on sale as well. I think when it comes to photos, videos and family treasures, one might skip on a GPU/CPU but not on possible RAM that can ruin your data. Running tests every so often might also be forgotten. Especially if you get comped for some hardware I do not mind paying premium for the ECC vs non ECC. I will also check on the voltage as well, the last piece I needed was the RAM to purchase and case to arrive.

I was wanting to decommission an old Dell R710 that's running in a hot garage and run UnRaid in-house (nice and cool). I also got tired of the old QNAP 2 bay NAS that's way outdated. I have the following Mobo: - ASUS TUF Gaming X570-PRO (WiFi 6) AM4 Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 & 3rd Gen Ryzen ATX Motherboard (PCIe 4.0, 2.5Gb LAN, BIOS Flashback, HDMI 2.1, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Because the Mobo supports ECC and the CPU I hear as well, but not officially I wanted to run 64 or 128gb or RAM. Was considering this: - Kingston Server Premier 32GB 3200MHz DDR4 ECC CL22 DIMM 2Rx8 Server Memory - CPU | AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-core, 16-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor I am not looking into overclocking anything just UnRaid + maybe 4-5 VMs. Because Mobo support 8/Sata connectors, I should be fine with a LSI card in IT-Mode if I go over 8 drives. I was planning to get a Video card to do some transcoding and any Photoshop work I do in one of the Vms. The ECC is for set it and forget it and run it 24/7 and not worry about anything that can happen. I also read that you can run/test your non-ecc ram 24-hrs or even a week long depending on GB and see if there are any potential issues with it + having to run that 1-2 times a year for piece of mind. Thanks any feedback is appreciate it.
