Kilrah's post in Shouldn't Unraid load-balance the data between drives? was marked as the answerThe default is high-water, if a share is set to say split between disk1 and disk2 it'll start writing on disk2 once free space on disk1 is less than half the free space of disk2.
So looking at that screenshot if it was the case above it'd start writing on disk2 pretty soon, seems normal.

Kilrah's post in Disk Space? was marked as the answerdu shows TiB, GUI shows TB. 36TiB=39.5TB.

Kilrah's post in internet went out and then I noticed the unraid pc shut off and upon starting is running parity check was marked as the answerYou likely had a short power dip, was enough to knock out the server and router but not the console.
-
Kilrah's post in [REQUEST] snikket was marked as the answerSince it needs a whole stack of containers you're probably best adapting the provided docker-compose in the Compose plugin.

Kilrah's post in Unable to reformat ssd after changing from RAID (SOLVED) was marked as the answerUnassign the drives, install the Unassigned Devices and Unassigned Devices Plus plugins, enable destructive mode in settings. You'll now get a red cross at the right of the drive names, click on that to erase all partitions on the disks you want to clear. They'll now be blank and ready for setting up however you want.

Kilrah's post in Moving parity drives from external USB to (shucked) internal SATA was marked as the answerYou can do a New Config, assign both drives, start the array with "Parity is already valid", then start a parity check without "Write corrections to parity" checked, and look at the number of errors. If it climbs like crazy stop the operation and array, new config again, swap the 2 drive assignments, do the same... If either of these goes with no parity errors you're most likely good. If not you'll have no choice but to rebuild parity.
Do note that for parity2 to be valid all data drives need to be assigned to the same slots as before too.

Kilrah's post in Slow and Stalling/Halting Transfers to Unraid Array from all sources (Version: 6.11.5) was marked as the answerMost likely. That's how SMR drives behave, if you fill their cache and continue writing they slow down to a crawl as they start thrashing trying to both flush cache AND accept new data at the same time. Pretty easy to see, if you pause the transfer and give them a couple of hours to flush internal cache, restart and it's normal for a while again that's your problem.

Kilrah's post in Identification Model value empty, now bricked was marked as the answerNot at all, you can always shut down via short button press, and put the USB drive in another machine to change/delete config/ident.cfg.

Kilrah's post in Very Slow Parity Sync for New 32TB 4+1 Drive Array was marked as the answerMinimum RAM for current Unraid is 4GB.
Also it seems these drives are SMR, usually Seagate ones behave decently in sequential writes but that could also be a cause.
-
Kilrah's post in I am baffled and confused ...... was marked as the answerWhen did the notification first appear? If it was while building parity that's normal as the array is considered "failed" until it's fully protected again.

Kilrah's post in Does coding a docker app on windows 10 create any issues for running on unraid? was marked as the answerDocker on Windows basically spins up a Linux virtual machine and runs in there so I believe it shouldn't be an issue, at most you have minor issues with line endings in files but that's easily dealt with with an editor like notepad++ that supports unix line endings.

Kilrah's post in Security Concern re Docker Container Showing Up was marked as the answerWell without knowing what you did we can't be sure hence asking for what instructions you followed, but the reddit thread for example talks of running
docker run cloudflare/cloudflared:2022.5.3 tunnel --no-autoupdate run --token <your token> which are generic instructions, and would have the result of creating a container that unraid has no idea about and has a random name since none was specified just like you see.
The first comment mentions that and not being clean in the unraid context (as you see) and says how to enter it using Add Container instead so unraid can track it.
-
Kilrah's post in Help launching a VM from a VMDK was marked as the answerOVA seems somewhat broken, get the iso and install clean instead?
-
Kilrah's post in Unraid not updating was marked as the answerYou don't have enough RAM for an in-place update, minimum 4GB is now required (and recommended for Unraid in general). You need to do a manual update of the flash drive on another machine.

Kilrah's post in [REQUEST] libretranslate was marked as the answer
-
Kilrah's post in How to edit docker-compose.yml inside docker vDisk was marked as the answerProbably need more detail but any variable should be set in the docker-compose file, no point trying to set it somewhere else as it would be overridden anyway. Docker image is unrelated.
-
Kilrah's post in Cannot format new drive was marked as the answerUpdate unraid, 6.11.2 has a bug with formatting.
-
Kilrah's post in Run iperf3 as a custom service in Unraid was marked as the answerRun it in Docker:
https://hub.docker.com/r/networkstatic/iperf3
EDIT: Will be available in Apps in about an hour.
-
Kilrah's post in Why execution permission is required for Samba sharing? was marked as the answerSince a directory can't be executable the x bit is unneeded, and reused to allow/prevent access to the contents.
https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/21252
So while files are fine at 644 directories need the x bit set.

Kilrah's post in Folders that are hidden on an SMB share was marked as the answerThat's a configurable setting,
-
Kilrah's post in Only using 1 disk was marked as the answerIt will be worst for write performance. It would be better in the case of "reading a file from a disk while writing to another" you mention.
On unraid writes are slow, hence the setup of using a cache SSD stuff gets written to, that you set to get moved to the array on a schedule in the middle of the night or other appropriate time where you're unlikely to be accessing the array.
Depends on which write mode you are, if you're in "reconstruct write" mode then writes to the array will happen at the speed of your slowest drive in the whole array, in read-modify-write it'll be less than half of the slowest between the drive that's being written to and the parity drive.
-
Kilrah's post in Cannot download & install docker images was marked as the answerMake sure your DNS/network on unraid are NOT set to use something like PiHole running on unraid itself.
-
Kilrah's post in Cannot boot existing unraid flash drive but other flash drives work fine. was marked as the answerIf you have a folder named "EFI-" on the drive rename it to "EFI".
Modern boards won't have legacy boot enabled by default anymore.
Alternatively you can enable CSM in the BIOS.

Kilrah's post in UNRAID / Nextcloud Share Ransomware was marked as the answerWas your nextcloud up to date, 2FA enabled etc?
-
Kilrah's post in Can't add brand new disks to existing array. was marked as the answerTry adding only disk2, starting the array, formatting the drive, stopping again, then adding the parity drive as a 2nd step.
