all this does is mean you dont need to edit the xml to get a full disk device passed through. it still performs terribly though compared to bare metal...
Oh...
-
surely there is an image around that we can just add to unraid rather then going through all these steps?
Is there one? Keen to find an easy way out
-
So, how did you do it?
If this can be done on Skylake, it would make mini ITX builds incredible for running 2 full GPU enabled VMs..
-
jon, that should be in an FAQ somewhere! I will be trying this ASAP.

Hey binhex, thanks for all your hard work. I keep getting this issue appearing in my logs:
2016-02-03 23:06:46,406 DEBG 'plexmediaserver' stderr output:
Error loading bundle code.
When viewing the log.
I've installed the absolute scanner and HamaTV and i think these aren't working very well, i need the absolute scanner for anime... I'd like to see where it errors out but the log viewer just doesn't load after 1-2 seconds.

I am interested in building a SkyLake system, but have yet to find the 'ideal' motherboard.. Is the wishlist too difficult? Mobo with 8x SATA, 1xm.2 and 2x PCI-E 16x, with separate IOMMU?
-
Like many others, i am running my HTPC in my unRAID server. 7.6m HDMI cable is doing 4k with my GTX 960 just fine. I would like a motherboard that can allow 2 GPU and 2 PCI-e USB controller cards so i can have two distinct VMs working like this. I am yet to find one that also has 8 SATA + m2...

Hey guys, i have my old NAS which i briefly turned into a gaming PC up for sale. It features many components i bought last year for it, so its relatively high end in some respects. I think its a great value deal for whats on offer. I took away all the drives btw, just left the SSD!
£450 for pickup, message me to discuss!
Pickup in London would be ideal...
Here is a spec list:
Case: Fractal Design Define R5 Black Pearl
Cooler: Scythe Kotetsu SCKTT-1000
SSD: Samsung 850 PRO 256GB
GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 960 Gaming 2G
PSU: Seasonic X-Series X-460 460W Fanless
Rear Fan: Antec Truequiet 140mm
CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K
Motherboard: Asus P8H67-I Mini ITX
RAM: 2x4GB (8GB) Corsair DDR3 1333Mhz
I have a USB TV Tuner available and a PCI-E one too if you're interested in those kind of things...
PM me if interested
I couldn't put the photos here but have a look here:
-
GTX 960 owner here, all works fine. Not sure what im doing different. Had to enable PCIe ACS Override for my motherboard unfortunately...
-
Exactly, slot all that into a nice small power efficient case/psu and you've potentially got 40TB powerhouse!
-
Considering the release of the new 1541 CPU and the ability to do SR-IOV, is there purpose for putting pure unRAID on this? Will the 10gbit network be supported?
Is there an elegant 6 drive case that will fit this? I'd look for 6x8TB drives...
I'd be looking to put a 16x PCI-I GPU in here also...

Thank you tobbenb for your efforts!
I have a SAT>IP receiver, and sometimes TVH will just stop seeing it. I'll have to stop and start the docker for it to recover (not restart). Not sure why!
-
It's odd. Admittedly i have one drive with failing SMART, which i need to replace... but these Seagate Desktop drives were a bust. Warranty is too short...
I also have a dubious PSU... I need to give my server an update.
Attached are some things, but still not sure if they will help.

Im now having the same problem, out of the blue. 30mb/s is the top speed i get during parity check and server struggles to do anything else during that...
-
Great response guys. Indeed the X11SAE-F might be better, however this post was specifically for that mATX form factor, that can get you a nice and small server put together.
Find a case that takes mATX and 8 hot swap drives and you've got a great mid-range system here!

Great Socket 1151 board:
http://www.supermicro.co.uk/products/motherboard/Xeon/C236_C232/X11SAE-M.cfm
IPMI is a good option, so are the 8xSATA (ideal IMHO).
Questions:
- Can we use that M2 slot for cache? Looks like we can! 8x SATA slots for HDDs.
- Is there a PCI-E 3.0 4x GFX card that can be passed through? Looks like a 1x GPU will work here.
- Can we pass through the 16x and 4x slots at the same time? Looks like this is also a yes.
- Can the PCI slot be used for a DVB card? Looks like it also!
- From the photos you could also get away with a long GPU as well
In summary, a great board for mATX system builders that ticks a lot of boxes for making a small and compact server with 8 drives.
Now, what case to put this in...
- Can we use that M2 slot for cache? Looks like we can! 8x SATA slots for HDDs.
-
This is amazingly good and should be rolled into unRAID instead of the current method of managing dockers.
-
I flashed to the version 20 of the firmware with no issues. Did not go to v3 BIOS though, it's such a hassle to update BIOS on this motherboard.
-
Thanks for the advice! I guess i'm looking for a way to take HDMI + USB over distance...
-
For me the SSD helps when running VMs, extracting large files, generally just speeds up IO so much it doesn't make sense not to have one.
I use the client and was not aware that 6.0 had a web interface, which would be awesome. I am trying to move to barebones unRAID 6.0 myself so i don't see the point of using ESXi at all... considering how much easier it is to do device passthrough in unRAID.
-
If i have my server in my closet, has anyone found a good way of transmitting USB and HDMI over network? This is to allow me to have a monitor and USB hub anywhere and just use the closet-server for everything?

There is this, but damn its pricey!
-
Excellent, let us know how this board works. I would suggest going for SSDs as cache, for a system at this level, why not!
-
Don't see why you shouldn't use the latest. In fact, i wonder if it is worth upgrading mine as well?
Did we get a resolution to the frequency issues?

Looks like this doesn't.
Any non server motherboards supporting 6 SATA + m.2?
