I do try and mention UnRAID at any opportunity. Also on /r/homeserver ande even /r/datahoarder

A decent 300W will do the job. For cheap and cheerful, the Corsair CS450M is a good unit.

I'm pretty sure it's the backplane. The same bay gave issues when the machine was running Windows (timeouts leading to lack of boot).

With 6.0 you don't need to, set up the Trial version. There's a "Purchase Now" button at the bottom of the main page, which takes you to a web site. You can pay via Paypal or credit card, and everything is done automagically. You just have to copy and paste a link from the email you're sent, and job is done. I just got another copy of UnRAID last night, and it took less than 3 minutes to purchase and install the license.

If you don't need cutting edge, the board I have is good value. I got it for just over £100 new, the CPU I got used off eBay for £80. It's a LOT of machine for the money. It's totally stable in UnRAID, too. It's a bit shy in USB ports, but to be fair I only use one for UnRAID (the UPS) and the internal USB port is dead handy for the UnRAID USB stick.

Definitely something weird with Haswell. I can see via the power consumption that the chips are entering the lower C-states, even if the frequency is high. My E3-1225v3 machine uses 80W+ when the CPU is running at high load, and with the drives spun down it uses about 18W. If the chip wasn't entering the SpeedStep low power states, it'd still be using 40W+ at least. It doesn't, however. I'm still confident it's a reporting issue rather than the chip running at high frequency and high power. It's not something I see with Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, or indeed Bay Trail. AMD works OK too.

I made my Docker image 20GB, I found 10GB is a little tight.

Unresponsive when? Your problem report is pretty much useless. When is it unresponsive? Does it ever work? does it stop working after a certain amount of time? How are you trying to access it? What hardware are you running? Those are the basic details we need.

All those programs have default username and password. Deluge is "deluge" (without quotes) for example. NZBGet is username "nzbget" and password "tegbzn6789", etc, etc. Most of the Dockers have the default username and password listed in the little piece of text at the top of the Edit screen.

I've had an issue with the backplane in this machine before, when running Windows. The backplane is running off the Marvell controller on a Supermicro X10SBA.

Nonsense. Look up LVDS.

I'm very happy with my pair of ST8000AS0002 too - I've had no issues at all either in over 2 months at time of writing, apart from a SMART issue which I believe to be a wonky cable.

Personally, I think if you're using plugins in UnRAID 6, you're doing it wrong.

Do not set up any RAID on the card. Clear any configuration you may have set up. UnRAID doesn't work with RAID (the hint's in the name!). When you don't set up a RAID on the Lycom card, then it just works like a SATA adapter.

Yes, but aren't those around $500 for the motherboard alone? I'm sure it is probably worth every penny, but I'm looking for whether there is a consensus on what does well with Plex at a more reasonable price / popular price point. I don't think so, where are you getting the $500 from? The workstation boards aren't any more than a gaming board. I paid £150 for my AsRock C216 WS. That's the same I paid for my Asus Maximus Gene VII gaming board.

You're replying to a thread from December 2013. This board works fine in UnRAID. I have run it myself, and I can also confirm that the older version, the C216 WS works fine in UnRAID too.

Great. Just about every SSD I own are either Micron/Crucial or Samsung, apart from smaller Intel drives. I heard about this a few days ago, and it was just the Samsung drives. With Micron/Crucial included, this is now an epic clusterf**k.

Broadwell is only marginally different to Haswell, and use the same chipset. Don't bother waiting, there's little to wait for.

You should check out some of Asus and AsRock's workstation boards. They have 10 SATA ports and will run all the E3 Xeons and i3, i5, and i7. They support ECC RAM too if you use an i3 or Xeon.

There's something wrong with your BIOS config. My gaming rig has this board (with an i5-4690K @ 4.5GHz), and UnRAID works just fine. The LAN is a pretty standard Intel chip, there's nothing odd or strange about it.

PowerChute is a steaming pile of crap and should be nuked from orbit. Never use PowerChute, it will kill your cat, piss in your soup, and make your bum itch. It's terrible. Just plug your UPS in to your UnRAID box and all will be happy.

I thought 4TB drives were the sweet-spot for $/GB? You should consider buying a 4TB drive for parity and then using your existing parity drive as another data drive. Then you won't need to change your parity drive again for a while. What's your budget?

Try totally blanking the drive and starting again. I used diskpart to "clean" my USB stick, then set it up again. Worked great after that.

Only in Windows, and it floats around 0.8-1.0W. I've never used sleep in UnRAID.

Quick question - I'm currently running a pair of Crucial BX100 SSDs in a cache pool. If I were wanting to upgrade to 1TB drives, how would I go about it?
