This is my diags after array start! unraid-diagnostics-20250527-1951.zip

I think my server is broken and I don't know how to troubleshoot it. I've attached diagnostics if anyone feels like checking it out. But I would love some advice on if you think I can salvage my current server build or if I should just build a new NAS and start again. I got into unraid about 9 months ago and in just testing it out I used a Dell Optiplex micro I had lying about and added in a couple of SSD's and SSD via USB. No parity. No cache drives. And so yes, my server is pretty jank and I've done all the stuff that's recommended not to do. I only had a couple of plug-ins and 1 docker container - binhex plex. Recently I've had daily crashes with Plex. And now the Plex docker container is just straight up disappeared. My plan was always to build a new NAS with HDD's, parity etc. So do you think I just start over and go that route or bother trying to fix my mess of a server? unraid-diagnostics-20250526-1956.zip

I'm running Binhex-plexpass docker (shows as Version 1.41.7.9799 within Plex). I assume this is 7.12 or whatever is the latest...

It never used to do this though. I'm not sure what has changed... And it's an issue as I have my plex docker container on there, so if that disk goes down then Plex won't work... Any idea on how to stop a disk spinning down?

I've attached my unraid diagnostics if anyone experienced can take a look and figure out what is going on. Recently my Plex started crashing every few days. When I check in my unraid.local I can see my disk 1 is not showing a temperature reading. A quick reboot resolves this and Plex works again. But now it's almost every day and sometimes I only get minutes between crashes. But admittedly, my server is nothing short of jank. When I got into unraid about 9 months ago I had a free dell optiplex micro lying about and added in spare NVME's, and additional SSD via USB. No parity. I know these are not recommended and I am looking at buying a proper NAS and HDD's for the array. I guess I am just wondering if there is any way I can salvage the current setup or if I am going to have to splurge on a new system to get this resolved. Thank you in advance unraid-diagnostics-20250523-2151.zip

Ahh amazing, that fixed it! I didn't realise it defaulted to 10%. I really appreciate you looking into that for me. Thank you!

Thank you! I'm fine sharing. Here it is. unraid-diagnostics-20241120-2232.zip

Is it safe to share the entire downloaded diagnostics folder here? Or do you just need certain txt files from within?

Hey; I was following along to AlienTech42's Appdata Backup Tutorial, but despite following him exactly whilst creating a new share it does not show in the User Shares tab after creating. I've attempted multiple times and reset the server etc but still nothing. Does anyone have idea why a new share might not show?
