I have a new T12 500 pro running Unraid 7. I was getting hot drive warnings then realized the fans didn't seem like they were on much. 46-57c I searched around and installed the ITE IT87 Driver plugin, and then the Dynamix Auto Fan Control. That was able to get one fan to run around 4000-500 rpm, the 2nd fan at 1/2 that speed. and fan 3 and 4 to read 0 rpm. Drives are now in the 40-45c range Anyone have any advice for this? I noticed in the auto fan control controls there are 4 options in the PWM controller dropdown. It wasn't clear if I needed to choose each option, and set up for that fan. or just one. or maybe I'm approaching this the wrong way.

Ah sorry. I'm still asleep. This is a 12bay enclosure I'm needing to get as much storage out of. So making the NVME drives the cache would let me keep the bays for storage. If I'm understanding right.

Ohh. that's a good idea. Most of this data is cold storage. Non critical, and I'll have a 2nd copy, so that seems doable. So I'd just stop the array, unassign the drive, turn back on array. Then after the transfer is done reverse that step? For the cache, I have 2 nvme slots on my system. I assume I could put a couple in there and that would help with day to day usage and not use a drive slot?

Ok. thanks for the info. Seems like it's the parity drive that's causing a 50% speed hit? (I have about 120tb to transfer, so trying to do that as fast as I can. 😃

Hi everyone. I'm new to UNRAID and NAS, I'm running UNRAID 7, 1 parity drive, 5 array drives. 26TB Seagate exos On a Terramaster T12 500 pro. I'm using AJA system test to check speeds. I know it's a single drive system, but I"m curious what kind of speeds I should be seeing for sustained data transfer?

Hey Andrew, this is exactly what I'm working on now. Your photo diagram looks almost identical to my setup. Can you easily share how you got it working?
