Da gibts noch diesen Punkt - prüf das mal bitte: (Seite 72 im Handbuch) IGPU Multi-Monitor Select disable to disable the integrated graphics when an external graphics card is installed. Select enable to keep the integrated graphics enabled at all times.

.) Also zu dem geannten Board finde ich nichts - lediglich ein ASRock H570m "Pro4" .) Das BIOS sollte schon am neuesten Stand sein... ist es das? Das Passiert, wenn die iGPU im BIOS deaktiviert wurde - hast du das geprüft?

And this USB-Stick has a (unique) GUID? If not, you cant install unraid on it... A recommened stick is the Kingston DTSE9H (16GB)

50MB/sec is a little bit low, but it depends what the server is doing in the background during the parity check. My Sys reaches normaly ~170MB/s but if someone is using Plex, the rate drops to ~145MB/s. Maybe a bottleneck on the controller(s)? There is a Docker application called "DiskSpeed" - install it and test your throughput of HDDs and Controllers 👍

For what is this mainboard? And the price... what the hell... € 564.- 🤪 And there is no 10GB-Lan on it... well... Way too expensive in my opinion but ok...

I use ASRock boards since 2010 for all my PCs and other creations. My unraid bord (B365M) is running since 14.12.2020 every day ~16 hours without any problems. My oldest (still working) ASRock board is a B75 Pro3-M from Nov. 2013 with an i7-3770. This machine runs every day for 8-9 hours without any problems too. So i think, they are reliable 🤣 I also use MSI boards but not that long... so i cant say how good they are...

You can use a modern i3/i5/i7 (12th, 13th Gen) and use HW-transcoding from Plex (Plex Pass required). There is no need for an extra Graphic - the iGPU can handle that. My old i7-iGPU can transcode ~8 4K-to-1080p streams without problems (transcode to RAM)... Delivering 4K-streams without transcoding needs no CPU-Power at all. And yes, ECC RAM is not necessary

iiihihi 🤣

No WD-Purple and Purple PRO are also CMR

Well... most boards have 6 SATA's Then use a HBA and you get 8 SATA's more - total of 14 SATA's (see my signature) 👍

Update went smooth and without problems - thanks a lot 👍

I am using an i7-9700 and the HW-transcoding performance (iGPU) under Plex is excellent - also for 4K 👍 Power consumption is not high (45W-70W) See my signature for the whole setup

I would prefer Intel too 👍

Maybe a hardware-problem? Cache-SSD? New? Old? Some more infos...

Thats an AMD-Board... and expensive too... Is there a "special reason" to not use an Intel-Sys? My "old" Sys is running since 2020 - without "any" problem 👍 The MB was cheap - only € 77.- 🤣

Updated without problems - thanks a lot 👍

For h265, you need (at least) a GT1030 - recommended is a 1050Ti or newer👍 Intel iGPUs can also handle h265

THIS! 👍

Not better, more like "different"... A server must run 24/7, so the boards have a different desing/construction. But you can also buy "military grade" Mainboards for "normal" computers... if you willing to pay 5x the price 🤣👍

Während des Bootvorgangs zieht eine HDD bis zu 25W - darum 👍 Meine WD-Purple's ziehen 1,8A beim booten auf der 12V-Schiene - macht 21,6W. Die RED's benötigen 1,85A - macht dann 22,2W im Peak.

Die Sache ist eher: Finde ein Netzteil mit 12-20 SATA-Stromsteckern 😉👍

FYI: Chrome is doing the same... If the Dashboard is open and a user is opening a new plex-stream - the old stream remains and a new one aproches. But maybe also a cache issue...

My old SYS is running well after the upgrade - thanks a lot👍

Yep i did this already and now its working again. Regarding the old streams, it seems, its a Cache issue of FireFox. When i do a reload of the page, the old streams are gone 👍

So - here we go A "new" thing: Its only working (now), when i put in a custom server IP - but ok - works. But i am not sure if this resolves the issue with the "old Streams" as well.
