Maybe you didn't activate it on the bios settings ? Sorry i don't use this NIC.

You can't, it's only avaible for windows 11/10. My NIC is the R8111h 1GBE. I don't have the 2.5gbe.

This plugin is magic. I can finally reach C10 state pkg and <5w idle. I'm using a 8111h NIC. Without the plugin, I'm stuck on C2/C3. Thanks.

I'm relatively new on Unraid, it was just a test. I don't know yet how i will do it, but i plan to use an unassigned usb hdd and maybe another unassigned usb flash to save these small critical files/data. I can't do parity because i'm using a tiny pc (prodesk mini G4) which only have 1 SATA3 slot and 1 M.2 nvme + M.2 AE key. So i thought to use incremental backup with usb disk. I heard that usb hdd are not safe to be assigned (risks of disconnection) and i'm not familiar with those m.2 to sata adapter, which could ruin my c-states and idle power... 🥲

Hi, i managed to make a backup of my flash boot drive on the disk1 which is currently a HDD. It's just a test. But i'd like to know if the "Appdata backup" app is able to do incremental backup (like rsync) or it will proceed differently ? And so, do you prefer using rsync or you just use "Appdata backup"? Thanks

I tested the new driver on windows 11 with my 8111h NIC. It solved the C-state pkg stucked on C3.

Did you enable APSM / power management C-state in the bios ? Not "auto" but need to be "enabled"

Excuse me guys i have almost the same problem but with another board. My /link folder is empty, and i can't applicate the command line, it returns as access denied. Does your folder contain files named l1_aspm or something else ? The command is supposed to edit a existing file or create one ?

Hi, i also have the denied permission, i don't have your motherboard, not sure to have this bios setting. (hp prodesk G4 400 mini)

I was asking because I'm looking for a solution to my problem of pkg getting stuck in C3. Unfortunately I can't test on Unraid. But I've found the culprit, it's the realtek rlt8111h NIC that someone has already mentioned here. This forum and this topic are a mine of useful information. When I unplug the ethernet cable, I can reach 45% of C3 and 45% of C8. If I completely disable the ethernet port in the bios, I easily reach 90% of C8. I was wondering if anyone had managed to fix the problem on unraid with this NIC realtek 8111h or if the only solution is to buy an Intel NIC in M.2 AE key for example. BTW, I'm using a hp prodesk mini G4 400.

Hi, is this topic only for Unraid users or can i ask you few questions on Debian 12 ?

In the search bar. Look for "TLP" and "12v" netzteil. You will find some config file and the fact that 12v can also reduce significantly the idle power draw. By the way, I don't own this board.

You're right, and I'm sorry for going a little off-topic. I'll be careful next time. Thanks !

Finally, I was able to find a second-hand mini PC. An HP prodesk mini G4 400, i5 8500t, 256gb ssd and 8gb for 95€. The Asrock N100DC is 136€ on geizhals/idealo.de, but you still have to add ram and ssd. Which is more expensive for me. But I'm still interested in the Asrock card, and we'll see how quiet the Prodesk is and whether it's right for my needs. I wonder if it's possible to use a 12v block instead of 19v with the Prodesk to reduce power consumption?

Normally when you buy this new motherboard in the box, there is a splitter cable which allows you to connect two disks via this SATA port. maybe the seller forgot to give you this cable

Basically, I wanted to use an external HDD for planned backups of a few important folders and an internal HDD for the rest (media files). I don't know if parity is really necessary in my case, but it's always a time-saver if one of the disks suddenly fails.

Hello, great topic ! Sorry ich spreche nicht deutsch but I live near the German border. I had to use the translator but i'm quiet impressive with this board and the power draw idle, specially with the fact that we can unofficially use a 12v charger. I'm still interested in buying this MB for several purpose : mini NAS (not sure for 1 or 2 HDD + ssd nvme), media player (jellyfin), web browsing, web hosting, 3D printer, usb printer, torrent box, pivpn/wireguard to access NAS outside. Currently i have a RPi 2B with 1GB, but it starts to become insufficient. Maybe i'll sell it or use it as a KVM switch and hosting.

Does POWERTOP allow you to undervolt, as is possible on some intel CPUs under Windows with intel XTU? It's possible to reduce CPU, cache and iGPU voltage. This is what I was doing on a laptop with an i5 10300H.

Which model are you using ?

Thanks for the explanation. I'm really surprised by your results. I see that you are almost constantly in C10 package, do you plan to add one or two HDD/SDD in sata and see if it changes the consumption? Currently i find the H610m for 115€ brand new or 90€ used. Still too high for the whole system but i keep an eye on this

Thanks and when you say power consumption on DC side, you mean directly from the wall, so for the whole system, not only the CPU ? It's really amazing, i don't know if it's because of the MB, CPU and the PSU, or only the CPU ? Because even an i5 13500 can consume less than 1w idle, so maybe 13th intel are really good for that ? I don't know if an i3 12100 is as good as your CPU. I would have liked to find an equivalent motherboard for an i3 10100, for example. I'm still hesitating between N100 motherboards, 1L PCs like lenovo, hp, dell or a chinese mini pc. But this last solution seems to me the least reliable in the long term...

Has anyone tried with a 12V power supply? It seems that this is compatible from what I read on another post. Maybe this can reduce coil whine?

very nice result. But i can't find any 13100 nor 12100 for less than 120€ + 115€ the MB. BTW, your PSU is a 4pin, how do you connect it to the MB which seems to use a 19V 5.5mm jack
