Yeah, I missed that one. Genius decision to put an entire NAS platform depending on a pendrive.

I have used TrueNas for years, and recently my Google Drive backup was zero size, and I do not trust the rclone used there anymore. I heard that your UnRaid was a lot better for that kind of routine, but nowhere and no one said that must run from a pendrive or depending of a plugged one definitively.

Where in the below guide: https://docs.unraid.net/unraid-os/getting-started/#prerequisites Says that a pendrive should be permanently plugged in, and ALL OF MY DATA, will depends on its health and availability ?

Unbelievable. In a QC + AI + ML age, using a thumb drive for licensing. This is beyond ridiculous. What a regret!

Should I use an USB drive plugged permanently? This should be clarified earlier and/or before someone pay for that.

I have made it working. What I mean is, due the price, should not be that pain in the 4$$ to put it in a disk. I had to run a linux and DD from pendrive to VM disk, it worked, but, I still get messages Unraid OS No Flash and Fix Error: Cannot access your USB Flash boot device There is a physical problem accessing your USB Flash boot device

Cannot access your USB Flash boot device There is a physical problem accessing your USB Flash boot device Unraid OS No Flash After licensed I did a DD from pendrive to a virtual disk on a ProxMox VM, I got this message even licensed. unraid-diagnostics-20250305-1746.zip

Also because is made on Linux, but there is no Linux USB Boot Creator for. Shame!

It is pretty ridiculous paying $ 249 to replace TrueNas by UnRaid, and find out is not possible to do a simple install using ISO or IMG in a HyperVisor. You need to make a bunch of adjustments and improvising to make it work. Do not woth the money I paid. My doubt is if they are amateur or incompetent.
