  1. Thanks Neil, very helpful. I'll purchase one definitely - should make things easier. http://www.silentpcreview.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=62063 I've just seen this is discussed at spcr - which is where I went for decreasing noise in all my boxes, so I may get a little obsessive with reducing the fan noise from the box. Looks like it will work perfectly I'll post a build thread sometime next week.
  2. Yes, I'm in the UK - i've seen the rebate deals and will buy a N40L probably next week after I get back from Nice. Thing is all my systems are basically inaudible, including my office machine. All have big CPU heatsinks (Scythe Ninja's etc) and fanless psus. I really really hate the hum of computers. However, with IPMI and the small form factor, I'm not sure I can resist. My UnRaid machine sits behind my TV atm and my sofas are around 8ft from the TV so I expect the sound would not be an issue. The only thing now is that my setup is 5 x 2TB + 1 x 3.5" cache drive. I think i'd have to replace the cache drive with a 2.5" drive. Also, I'm not sure how easy it will be to transplant my unraid from 1 machine to another. I have no idea if it's all just plug and play these days! Or will I have to fiddle with the unraid disk stuff..
  3. Hi guys. I'm thinking about moving my unraid build to an N36L, think someone could answer a quick question for me? Current build: 6 x 2TB SATA 5400RPM Samsung greens. In a Antec Mini P180 case. PSU: Seasonic 400 Fanless Fans: 2 * 120mm extremely slow fans (lowest voltage on molex, pin mod) Practically inaudible, except at about 15cm away. How loud would this case be in comparison? Cheers.
  4. Finally updated from 4.7 to 5rc5 today/yesterday. Uptime was around 16 months. So far, very pleased with 5
  5. I use a Zotac ZBox HD-ID11, running XBMCLive CD installed on a 5400rpm 250gb HD. It runs 1080p MKVs, Blueray ISOs etc flawlessly. I updated the Zbox BIOS and there is absolutely zero fan noise. I connect this to a 8TB (4 x 2TB, 1 x 2TB parity) Unraid fileserver. Tower box is running sabnzbd and sickbeard. Worth every penny.
  6. Hmm, I can't find where to set that. Right now my shares are just Disk1, Disk2. How do I create a combine share? It doesn't seem to have this option anywhere..
  7. Perfect, is this demonstratable with the pre-registered version? Or is it the 'user-share' option? Thanks Sam
  8. Hiya, Before I pull the trigger on a license - I have 6x1TB drives, will UnRaid support displaying them all as a single share? i.e. one share \\tower\singleshare - Size 5tb + 1tb parity I searched but I couldn't find anything.. Thanks Sam
