I am not sure, if ECC is necessary for Plex only - maybe for a machine with VMs... I use unraid since 2010 for Plex only and never used ECC.

Transcode to what? The iGPU of my i7-9700 can transcode 4 Streams with 4k to 1080p/8MBit without a problem - the iGPU laughs at the four streams. So the question is: What is the target resolution and bitrate...

Thanks for your help - working 👍

After the update to v 2023.02.05a, i see this: ...not normal (i think).

...and when will it come? (soon 🤣)

Necessary no - but its the "most efficient way" to transcode for Plex - so yes, its recommended 👍

Found a solution which works (Page #12):

Thats the point... i have only one - under my cache SSD - but this is empty. (\\10.10.10.250\cache\appdata\plex\Library\Application Support\Plex Media Server\Cache\Transcode\Sessions) When i look under /tmp, there is nothing... so i am a little bit confused 🤣 I get also this fancy mails: unRAID Alert [HORUS] - Docker image disk utilization of 100% unRAID Notice [HORUS] - Docker image disk utilization returned to normal level In my case the gap is ~1min between both mails. This happens 3-4x per year...

How can i check if plex is transcoding to the RAM? Is there a possibility? This link is interesting... https://github.com/binhex/documentation/blob/master/docker/faq/plex.md BUT: I have no variable named 'TRANS_DIR' - so what is this???

I use three PCIe-Cards: .) A PCIe 3.0 x8 HBA in the primary PCIe 3.0 x16 slot (CPU) .) An Intel GBit-NIC in the PCIe 3.0 x1 slot (PCH) .) A PCIe 3.0 x4 10 GBit-NIC from Asus in the PCIe 3.0 x4 slot (PCH) There are no bottlenecks so far... Both NICs are using 5 PCIe-Lanes of the PCH and work with full speed - the 10 GBit-NIC reaches 9480 MBit max.

Well... maybe i am too sily, but there is no "orange area"... nowere... sorry EDIT: Now i got it 🤣 These are the values of my SSD 970 Pro from Samsung:

...there is nothing to "click"... just hide or show (r/w) - but no further infos there...

This did the trick - thanks for your detailed help. The question is now: Why was this Docker installed at the other path? And why did it work before? I installed it over the Apps-function - so i did not set this path - the install-process did this... EDIT: There is something strange at the write-speeds... The Samsung SSD 970 PRO is far more faster then 397MB/s. When i transfere data over my 10GBit NIC, i reach up to 1189MB/s constantly... The constant write speed of this SSD is 2300MB/s.

What shall i add and were? I am not a Docker-Expert...

...hmmm... dont have this settings...

Same output here - no NVMe's detected. But on the Scan-Screen, both NVMEs are detected - each with one partition (XFS).

...still the same problem... (thats my cache-SSD) Unable to benchmark for the following reason * No mounted partitions were found. You will need to restart the DiskSpeed docker after making changes to mounted drives for changes to take effect. v2.10.2

Ja macht ja nichts. Beschreib einfach die neue HDD und fertig - umkopieren mußt da garnichts. Mach ich seit 12 Jahren so...

Look at this FYI: None of this three mentioned conditions are true... .) Drive not mounted - No - alle drives are mounted .) Less the 25GB free - No - 467GB/585GB free .) Part of a pool - No So there must be some other error 🤣 FYI2: It takes "ages" till the webGUI cames up... maybe another new problem? FYI3:

Hmmmmm... It seems, there is something strange... I have two NVMe's - a Cache-Drive and an unasigned device... there is no Pool... And your tool says: Unable to benchmark. Requires a mounted partition not included in a multi-drive pool with 25GB available. You will need to restart the DiskSpeed docker after making changes to mounted drives. (???)

Not on my sys - all is working fine... and i use the Intel CPU Top and GPU Statistics plugins too.

Why a F-CPU? The iGPU from Intel is always "nice to have" - buy a normal 12100 👍 FYI: I use ASRock Boards since 2010 - never had problems with it. At the moment, i use six PCs with ASRock Baords - all are working well. The oldest is a i7-3770k and still working 👍

Today (right now) my server crashed... Reason: Unknown... not funny... Since v6.11. there is something "really" strange with unraid...

Strange... when i set to macvlan, plex is unrachable, so it was ipvlan before because plex was working...
