With all due respect, I realise this is a busy forum and people probably ask the same questions over and over, but the only link in this thread is the one to recommended cards thread for a "Firmware Upgrade" - I read all 8 pages here and found no other information. I followed the link to the other thread, and read 8 pages in to that before I found some instructions - but as you say they mention a ROM from station drivers, and the ROM version was not the one mentioned here as a "fix" for the powertop tuning issue. Luzankia mentioned silverstone firmware so I was simply asking which one he had used as I'd prefer to use one that is a known fix than a random one from station drivers on an unrelated thread (it turned out they are the same but the rom naming doesn't match versions mentioned here). I appreciate everything everyone does here and unraid is a brilliant OS but it seems like a lot of times I ask questions the response is a stack exchange style "just read, this has been answered before". I think the community would greatly benefit from a wiki rather than relying on a forum where the answers are text buried 8 pages into a 10 page thread or at least we could change the firmware update link on the first page here to point directly to the relevant comment https://forums.unraid.net/topic/102010-recommended-controllers-for-unraid/?do=findComment&comment=1185707

Thanks, yeah got it sorted now. The silverstone firmware update is confusing as hell - the file names for the firmware don't match the actual version. Takes a lot of googling to work out which is newest etc.... I found the file on https://www.silverstonetek.com/en/product/info/expansion-cards/ECS06/ - for anyone else wanting to try this it's helpfully called "Fix compatibility issue and support Intel 600 series chipset motherboard" I shutdown unraid, moved my card to my Windows 11 gaming PC, ran the firmware update and it worked fine My card had come with 200529-000D-02 firmware version, flashed it to 211108-0000-00. I *think* mine was about 2 years old - it's hard to tell as I found an archive of loads of version numbers but there's no consistency in the version numbering at all. Either way seems to work fine, did the upgrade last night and all my disks are still there this morning. I'm going to write up a guide on my documentation site just in case anyone else is googling it like I was as there's not a lot of help out there EDIT: Oh I did also, same as you, see an increase in speed too when running a parity check!

Yes but no details of where to get the firmware or instructions of how to do it Sorted now

I definitely need to do this - my parity check on my ASM1166 sits at 30ish MB/s which I always thought was a bit slow and my server is eating power usage. I tried to find the files on the Silverstone site but all I found is a zip file with an update tool and a 11080000.ROM from 11/01/2022 Where did you find the 2011/2111 versions?

Would you mind giving some details on this? I've got a generic ASM1166 and I'd like to update the firmware but can't find a firmware file or tool on the silverstone site. Thanks

I should have read this when I was building my server - my own fault But DO NOT buy a Marvell 88SE9215 based card Was happily sat watching Plex and then the film died, said the file wasn't there Checked my server and 3 disks had all dissapeared including my parity disk!!! `usb 1-5: reset full-speed USB device number 4 using xhci_hcd` followed by a ton of errors in logs - looks like the card just randomly reset There's a lot of chatter over the years on linux forums about the same issue. Am returning it tomorrow and have a ASM1166 coming as a replacement - hopefully it's more solid

I found this thread through a link in the Rebuild-DNDC package It was using this script to convert the XML into a docker command to restart child containers linked to a parent container network. It stopped working at some point, wasn't finding volumes etc... I believe the XML format must have changed in the last year I've written a quick and dirty update to it which I thought I'd link here just in case anyone is still looking for this functionality https://github.com/Phil-Barker/rebuild-dndc/blob/master/Rebuild-DNDC/ParseDockerTemplate.sh

I ran into this same issue Wanted to replace my cache drives with bigger ones - followed the instructions but 20hrs later the mover has finished and still an absolute ton of symlinks in the docker volumes, and plex meta etc... that mover refuses to move Specified filename /mnt/cache/system/docker/btrfs/subvolumes/93c5b02f4d84e28555d19af3bda8b6c102c89e84a3ee17c755eea5a69a1fe527/usr/lib/git-core/git-clone does not exist. The logs are just full of this for every single symlink I attempted to run a manual rsync from the cache drives onto disk3 which is where mover was sending the files, did this for appdata and system shares rsync -avrth --progress --dry-run /mnt/cache/appdata/ /mnt/disk3/appdata/ But this doesn't work because the files the symlinks pointed to have now moved so they have no referent. This has left me in a complete mess! This seems to be a bug with mover since 2014.. hopefully it can get addressed as if the official procedure for upgrading cache drive(s) is followed you'd end up with completely broken docker containers

Firstly thanks for this plugin I'm new to unraid but the Docker UI is horrible. As I use traefik there's quite a few labels that I maintain, adding them one by one is awful. And containers like littlelink-server that use entirely variables, oh man, it would take me 20 minutes just to type them all in. I know the answer to this is probably no, but is there anyway to stop unraid flagging all the composer containers as requiring an update, as that's triggering notifications and makes the docker UI hard to follow when it says there are updates to install that there aren't. If not is there any alternative UI to creating docker containers in unraid that isn't an awful experience? EDIT: Found the patch UI setting which seems to take care of the docker UI. I found in common problem fixer you can ignore a specific warning, so have just set them to ignored. Not ideal but better than it was
