    Unraid Feature Request Wishlist

    in Unraid Polls

    Posted

    Mine server is not hidden away. Wifi 6 is incredible and huge leap over wifi 5. I can write at 100MBps from my wifi 6 pc to my unraid server. (The router, server and pc are all in the same room though). When the pc is moved to a different floor, I get 77MBps. 

    Wireless Unraid

    What I don't get about this whole thread is that it's VERY easy and cheap to get wireless support for Unraid right now, no need to wait for OS support. Wireless game adapters are readily available, and easy to change and upgrade when wireless technology advances, instead of waiting for linux support to catch up.
    I don't think wireless game adapters come in wifi 6.

    Convert reiserfs to XFS hdd by hdd or build a new server

    I am using the server below and I will eventually be buying and preclearing 5 X 16tb Seagate Exos hdds. My current server uses Reiserfs and I want to migrate to XFS as I was told this is better filesystem.

     

    Basically I can do this two ways:

     

    1) Do it on the old server below hdd by hdd one at a time.

     

    2) Or build a new server with xfs and transfer data from old reiserfs server to the new xfs server.

     

    Which method is easier?

    These builds any good?

    I have been using Unraid for 10 years and so far my use for it for movies has never changed. I have had various builds and so far the Qnap 653A for Unraid has been my smallest. Its also the weakest in terms of hardware.

     

    I do understand that my two proposed builds are very expensive for what I need Unraid to do. I have thought about getting another Qnap for Unraid but they are more expensive (TVS-672N is £1400!) and the Qnap 6 bay server cases are bigger than the 653A.

     

    The AMD build will be approx £568 and the Intel build will be £657 approx. The ASRock B550 Phantom Gaming ITX/ax is about £215.

    These builds any good?

    I want to upgrade from my Qnap TS-653A as the hardware is quite old now.

     

    Any thoughts on these two builds? The AMD build is about £100 cheaper. I want to use the CPUs integrated graphics for basic checking if Unraid has loaded. I will be using this server for sending movie rips to my Zidoo player (no transcoding required). The mobo should have wifi 6 and as many sata ports as possible.
