Another data point for everyone: AS Rock H310CM-HDV, Pentium G5400. 2x 8GB sticks, 1 NVME, 4 2.5" SSDs running from an HDplex PSU mentioned above. LSI HBA, Expander, 17 3.5" drives, all spun down except a WD black SN850X with the drives being ran from an SF750 reaches C3 for 67% and coming in at around 50 watts with the web gui open. Turning off the SF750 sees it come down to around 17 watts. Same as above but with the C246 and Xeon idles at 60 watts with no pkg c states functioning Having 2 SSDs on and a downloader see that hover around 20-23 watts and C3 at around 20%. All drives spun up around 140 watts.

Tried the first suggestion. Still 0 on the pkg despite being 97% C7 on the core. Same USB gets C7 on another motherboard, processor and RAM, but I've also tried that processor and RAM in this one with the same results.

This is enabled. No MTU setting to be found. Current testing state has nothing but an ethernet card connected, both onboard NICs disabled, even disabled the onboard sata controller.

5 Beeps in some cases can refer a bad CMOS battery apparently, seems that has solved that issue. Also haven't had a restart since I replaced the PSU.

I'm still struggling with reaching 0% C states on this C246 board. Server seems to work fine aside from that now and I've got 12 hours left to open a return if I have to. ASPM is enabled in the BIOS, I've also tried auto. Despite that, I get this: Also tried disabling the onboard ethernet and other PCIE slots. Fitting an X540. Still says disabled.

Thanks. Is 20GB an ok setting for this?

Share is called Unraid. tower-diagnostics-20240429-1745.zip

Starting getting this issue recently. Trying to copy to the user folder in Windows says there isn't enough space for 100GB when there is 10TB spare. Going into Krusader and trying to create a new folder is met with cannot create new folder. How do I diagnose this?

Fair enough. Not about to start listening to podcasts on the subject. Shame they've gone this route, I'd love to see the numbers from whoever proposes these subscription based models as I can't help but imagine alienating whatever % of the customer base that also hate subscriptions isn't a good move for long term business.

How are they working for free if I've paid for it? Regardless I don't expect anyone to work for free, just hate the subscription model everyone seems to be pushing at the moment. By comparison the competition is free and there are at least 5 alternatives. Adobe is the most pirated software in the world because of their pricing, but it is also an industry standard. Unraid is not. Nice position untill they decide to introduce Unraid 7 and tell me my lifetime purchase is obsolete? Sounds like that is what's in the post.

Personally, I think its unreasonable to hold the security of our systems hostage to a subscription. This is an OS, security should be a priority. XP got 13 years of security updates, Vista 10, 7 got 11 years and 10 got 10 years. Not sure what you mean about others. Truenas, Proxmox, Xigma, Snapraid and OMV are all free for consumers, some with higher prices for the enterprise sector.

This still sounds like the older versions will be left vulnerable in the future unless we pay more money for the new updated version?

I was about ready to buy a 2nd license to split the server in 2 and noticed the new pricing structure. Are updates not essential security protection? Doesn't this ultimately mean it would leave a bunch of machines vulnerable? Or the other option being we have to pay a yearly subscription (or 5x the amount of the last purchase) to get that? Am I missing something here? I remember paying for JRiver only to be told if I wanted the bugs which rendered my version near useless fixed I had to pay again for the new version. Felt a pretty scummy thing to do at the time, that was a while back. They're still around it seems.

Looks fine, apparently a new board.

Changed back to the Xeon with everything plugged in and again get the 5 beeps x2 at start.

Still struggling with any C states on the C246 board above, so tried another set I had around. AS Rock H310CM-HDV, Pentium G5400. 2x 8GB sticks. No drives. HDplex PSU mentioned above. Reaches C7. Idling at a whopping 4-6 watts.

Usually highly regarded, but no tests around. Added another option I had found.

Reset CMOS, 5 beeps have gone away? Could a bios setting cause this?

Ram changed to non ECC, 1 stick, tried 2 different slots and a new PSU - still get 2x 5 beeps at boot.

Any reason why no one mentions this PSU? https://hdplex.com/hdplex-fanless-250w-gan-aio-atx-psu.html I just installed one, coming from an EVGA 650GM to this dropped a 20 watt idle to 11. They have a pico type variant which always seems to be out of stock. Edited to add this as another option. https://streacom.com/products/zf240-fanless-psu/

Processor changed to a Pentium gold, MB cable extension removed, still get 2 lots of 5 beeps at startup. Still boots and runs fine.

Upon a restart, the MB just threw 2 lots of 5 beeps at me but still booted. No reference to what the beeps mean in the manual, but google suggests it is a CPU related error. https://www.advantech.com/en-eu/support/details/manual?id=1-1MMAIHV

I've gone back to the first config above. Nothing connected but changed the PSU for an HDPLEX 250W passive GaN AIO ATX Power Supply. C246 board/Xeon E-2174G/2x ECC/USB stick/1 fan. Idles at around 11 watts now, but still 0% on all C states. But it seems to now be giving me 2 lots of 5 beeps at boot. CMOS Reset seemed to fix this one. Unsure which setting gave that beeping error. Edit: New CMOS battery seems to have fixed this one. C states still aren't working with different pentium CPU, PSU or non ECC ram.
