thank you - i installed that plugin and will try to use it to mitigate the split-level issue and if that fails, i may change the setting on the shares.

Sorry about that - here it is. tower-diagnostics-20251025-1116.zip

I have "Minimum free space: 30gb" on all of my shares, recently mover has stopped working (rsync "disk out of space" error) and when looking at unraid's main page /mnt/disk1 keeps getting overfilled by mover - it is not switching to other disks with free space (e.g: /mnt/disk2... disk3...) My version is 7.1.4 - I haven't changed my server settings in awhile and recently the mover just started doing this today.

Unraid 7.0 kernel has the bcache-linux module. What is missing is unraid web interface hooks to detect and handle the configuration of bcache disks (its similar to setting up a disk partition format dance). /dev/sda needs to be bcache formatted via make-bcache command. Now that /dev/bcache0 exists, unraid needs to allow us to put encryption or a partition on top. In other words unraid needs to threat /dev/bcacheN as it does for /dev/sdN in the current state of affairs. I haven't bruteforced since I don't have a spare license and all my USB disks all have undergone a trial already but I did see I was able to create a /dev/bcache0 device on my unraid because the kernel has the module it needs - i just needed to drop the binaries for the userspace tooling that talks to the kernel and go to town. https://github.com/TheLinuxGuy/ugreen-nas/blob/725850e877731aa475300b3eacfdd7f853640b8a/bcache-cheatsheet.md?plain=1#L53

And as expected... bcachefs will be dropped from the linux kernel. https://news.itsfoss.com/linux-kernel-bcachefs-drop/ Best to implement bcache as block /dev/bcacheN as the layer on top of disks on unraid IMO

unraid should allow us to use bcache-linux (totally different than bcachefs) Why would we even bother about bcachefs? performance is abysmal, single developer is a dick and got 404'd from sending kernel patches. See below.

Also another web UI element that fails to load most times for me....

here it is, thanks. tower-diagnostics-20250323-2155.zip

Hello, the Unraid web UI has become almost unusable for me when I try to view the Docker page. The loading spinning logo turns into an infinite loop, most times I have to reload the page multiple times until I finally see the page and the information on that page. I have not changed my workflows on my unraid server, this web UI page was rock solid on older releases. Since I upgraded to 7.0 a few weeks ago this page has become very unreliable, I waited for awhile until I had time to file this thread thinking it may be a minor bug that the next release would fix (7.0.1) that did not happen. My server load is at the usual that its always at during downloading / unpacking in nzbget (Under 10 for 12 cores is good, I had this server go into 40+ during heavy transcoding activity from plex). Any help is appreciated.

Since I know a lot of people read this thread (I do myself too when researching new parts) I wanted to share my experience with the MSI MPG Z690 FORCE WIFI DDR5 ATX board. TL;DR no C10, C3 max. I was looking for a motherboard that can support two x8/x8 PCIE x16 slots at full bandwidth PCIE 5.0 with a lot of nvme storage. The MSI MPG Z690 FORCE WIFI first this requirement nicely, the bad news is that it isn't power efficient at all. I unlocked the hidden BIOS menus, changed many settings and enabled the usual suspects of ASPM and all other settings needed. Nothing will bright this board past C3 Pkg. This is not a total loss for me since I am going to use it for my 56Gbps Connectx-3 Pro experiment and I also have a 12 disk enclosure that will connect to a broadcom 9500-8i - so this is why I needed dual x8/x8.

Cool web interface, can you share how / where to get it? ---- Guys one of my old LGA1700 motherboard died and I need to replace it, could I get some suggestions on a board that can easily reach C10 with DDR5 + three M.2 nvme + x16 pcie slot (2 slots of this type is preferred, second can be x4). Also just purchased a ConnectX-3 Pro 56gbps inifiniband, i think this card will kill C10 idle are there other cheap options for 40/56g cards?

Does unraid require any special configuration settings to allow intel vpro / AMT 2.0 to properly display the terminal console? I'm able to view the GRUB boot menu, select but once the kernel loads the screen turns black like the photo and i can't view it.

I wasn't able to fix this issue when nesting unraid with proxmox as the hypervisor. I put this USB3 enclosure on an older HP 800 G6 mini pc and booted unraid there, the system has been stable for 3 days.

powertop is a great tip. I am actually running `powertop --auto-tune` at boot on the proxmox host. Let me disable this and see if this changes things. Proxmox host is a Minisforum MS-01 mini pc. Intel 12600H with vpro 32gb memory

Yes, I am actually testing Unraid 7 on a Proxmox VM and I am passing thru the entire USB 3.2 controller. On Proxmox host I am doing explicit USB detection blacklisting and driver blacklisting in combination, so disks never show up in proxmox by mistake. This is working, as I originally saw the problem was that disks were showing up in proxmox non-exclusively. root@MS1:~# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/99-ignore-usb-device.rules SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="2109", ATTR{idProduct}=="0822", ATTR{authorized}="0" SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="174c", ATTR{idProduct}=="55aa", ATTR{authorized}="0" SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="2109", ATTR{idProduct}=="2822", ATTR{authorized}="0" root@MS1:~# cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-usbstorage.conf blacklist usb-storage root@MS1:~# lsusb -t /: Bus 04.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd/3p, 20000M/x2 /: Bus 03.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd/1p, 480M root@MS1:~# Yes, the quirk is working and I had checked it by running `cat /sys/module/usb_storage/parameters/quirks` which returned the quirk setting.
