  1. http://slickdeals.net/f/8004703-amazon-124-99-crucial-16gb-2-x-8gb-240-pin-ddr3-sdram-ecc-unbuffered-ddr3-server-memory?p=77303829&utm_source=dealalerts&utm_medium=em-i&utm_term=26994&utm_content=u226989&utm_campaign=tu-9999#post77303829 I think this is probably a fairly good deal - not sure how important ECC is to unraid, but can't hurt to have some of this around when the price goes back up.
  2. Pretty sure that's an amazing price for a great drive.
  3. In for 4 more today as i feel good putting a drive in that is less likely to fail, or at least one that i feel is less likely to fail. Starting preclears on the original 4.
  4. Amazon raised their price. Looks like you can still get it on B&H. A little tempted to put 2 in my gaming box for the 3500 steam games i have since its 7200 and as far as i know the 7200 doesn't help with slower drives in unraid box.
  5. FYI, in case any one is interested. I decided to order 4 from Amazon. - I also get 5% back from Amazon.com store card. (which was an offer to upgrade from my amazon credit card a few weeks ago.) http://slickdeals.net/f/7936309-5tb-toshiba-7200rpm-3-5-internal-hard-drive-for-144-99-with-free-shipping-at-amazon-and-b-h?#comments Any thoughts?
  6. http://slickdeals.net/f/7808513-wd-my-book-4-tb-usb-3-0-hard-drive-new-amazon-119-00-free-shipping?p=75541655&utm_source=dealalerts&utm_medium=em-i&utm_term=936&utm_content=u226989&utm_campaign=tu-9999#post75541655 Not the best price, but its nice to see an option out there without rebates involved.
  7. In 4 the max of 3 drives (was coming to post this deal and saw you already did, thanks!)
  8. Im just going to get the 6gb internal seagates for 199 from amazon, quite a bit more expensive but i know they work (for around 3 years according to backblaze) - its so damn hard to choose a drive and not spend top dollar.
  9. Please let us know how the preclear went, mine were not so good with same drive on 2 drives when i did them internally.
  10. http://slickdeals.net/f/7534094-4x-4tb-hgst-nas-hard-drive-combo-600-newegg?p=73070570&utm_source=dealalerts&utm_medium=em-i&utm_term=936&utm_content=u226989&utm_campaign=tu-9999#post73070570 These are reportedly more reliable than the other brands. Price is fair, but not earth-shattering.
  11. I was coming here to post this deal and saw yours - Got 4 for me coming - used chase freedom chard for additional 5% cash back in rewards.
  12. I waited too long and it appears to have gone up in price. Glad someone got in on the deal though!
  13. Brit, thanks for your help - This is what ended up working for me specifically. Add a windows credential - internet address: Tower username: computername\username password:password I got hung up just putting the username in without the computer name first, i found the format by looking at a few different shares. I'm quickly realizing what a great and knowledgeable person you are Brit. Thanks very much!
  14. Not sure if this drive is liked much for reliability, but its a reasonably good price. - any thoughts? http://slickdeals.net/f/7499076-western-digital-wd-green-6-tb-6tb-desktop-hard-drive-3-5-inch-sata-6-intellipower-64-mb-cache-internal-wd60ezrx-205-shipped-amazon?v=1&p=72793776#post72793776
  15. It was not 1 click on a trial version. I can do it now with the following clicks - Main, Boot Device, then click on the word flash on the left. I understand it now, but it was suggested that i post to address it. It wasn't that apparent to me as a completely new person. Thankfully i got help in the irc channel.
  16. I am quite new here, but am wondering how i solve this problem, I have an email address as a user name on a couple of windows 8.1 machines on my network - I can't create a user in unraid beta 6-12 to set up a share that is secure. Am i missing something or can anyone suggest a solution for this while still using that f'd up windows username?
  17. I had a problem locating the usb guid to try and purchase via the instructions on the web page. I am using 6.0-beta12 and am a complete newb but i think its not adequately located in the instructions on purchasing. I found it here with the help of someone in the irc channel. - http://TOWER:80/Main/Flash?name=flash - its about 5 clicks in and could be an obstacle for others in purchasing. Thanks. More specific instructions would help.
