Hi Is it possible to configure br0 and br1 interfaces so that they bond as 2x10Gb interfaces thus making 20Gb? I managed to activate NIC teaming on Windows 10 using this command New-NetSwitchTeam -Name "SwitchTeam01" -TeamMembers "Ethernet","Ethernet 2" I now have a NIC team showing 20Gb in my windows 10 VM. Problem is, I get much worse transfer speed to UNRAID shares than I did with just a single 10Gb NIC configured. Basically, I want to maximise my transfer from my W10 VM to a share on the NVME drive in the array. I figured 600MB/s wasnt enough and thought about bonding/teaming. Is what I am trying to achieve do-able?

Nope, I remove the nvme drive and the flashing stops. I have two other nvme drives also connected and they're fine. I wrote an email to Corsair to explain my issue and suggsted I return the drive. I have to admit it's very odd but I did notice also that the BIOS stop code ends in A5 which is SCSI reset, when I remove the nvme drive, the stop code is something else. I think my drive controller is up s*it creak.

I'm considering using 2 x nvme in RAID for my VMs but want to know if it's indeed worth it compared with say passing through each nvme drive to a VM directly. I ran a performance test using W10 Pro 1809 as a RAW image on my MP510 3GBps nvme and ASSD bench's approx 3GBps read and 1.4GBps write. I then tried copying a 4GB file within the W10 VM using explorer and only got 350-400/MBps. What gives? I would expect closer to the 1GBps mark. I only used defaults when creating the VM so I'm not sure if there's any tweak changes to the XML that I need to do to improve virtio SCSI performance. Any tips?

My HDD LED on my case is constantly flashing and I cant isolate why. I shutdown all VMs, dockers and take the array offline and the light is still flashing like there's constant drive activity. So, I reboot UNRAID, go in to the motherboard BIOS and the light is still flashing. I suspect it may be something to do with one of my nvme drives that I'm passing through to the W10 VM because when I then start UNRAID, power on the VM with the nvme drive passed through, the flashing stops for a few minutes until after Windows is fully loaded. Then a few minutes later the constant flashing starts again. It's very strange and I'm really struggling to pinpoint the culprit. The nvme is the corsair MP510 and all SMART test pass OK and drive performs normally. At a complete loss at the moment where to start looking other than trying a different nvme drive which I dont have atm.

Also, Is it possible to see fan speed from RX 570 GPU? I use istat hwmon etc and can only see GPU temperature. All other info uch as voltage, fans etc are not there.

I keep getting 'there was an error connecting to the Apple ID server' when clicking Sign In on the Appstore. I suspect it might be because Apple doesn't recognise the VM as a real MAC? I have followed everything in the guide so I'm not sure why I can't access the Appstore. Appstore login works on other machines and High Sierra VM, only Mojave has a problem.

Hello TR4 2950x UNRAID: 6.6 10gb local vNIC br0 (mtu 1500) 1gb NIC physical Win10 VM 1809 (6 cores/12 threads) SMB Share: Array Disk 1 nvme (contains appdata and downloads share) - Tunable DirectIO set to yes. iperf tests from VM to UNRAID host benched in excess of 10gb/s (no issues there then) w10 VM nvme drive passed through (benched 3Gb/s) unraid smb share on nvme drive (benched 2Gb/s) Tests performed: 1.)

It seems also that If I transfer large files from another SSD in the unassigned devices pool, I don't have any speed issues. Only when transferring between the Array disk and a VM. Any ideas?

Curious whether this works for anyone on 6.6.5? I just tried it on my MSI x399 board and I can't even start the docker. I set it previlige etc but no luck.

I have no need for parity and the only option I had at the time for an array was to include my 128GB SSD. All other drives are configured under unassigned devices plugin. My questions is whether this is OK and whether assigning a SSD/nvme cache drive will actually help.

Yes, just using them as unassigned devices.

My disk configuration as follows: hardware: 2950x MSI x399 MEG Creation, 32GB @3200mhz 1 array disk (SSD) used for appdata and docker. 1 x SSD for VMs 2 x 3.5" HDDs for archive data 1 x 512GB nvme for Music Share 1 x 1TB nvme passed through to a W10 VM Is there any reason why I should allocate a cache disk? Will it make much difference for file transfers between the W10 VM and UNRAID host? I used the diskspeed docker to test the speeds of all my drives and worryingly the nvme 512GB drive tops out at 700MB/s reads. In Windows it tops out at 2-3Gbps. What could be the issue? Thank you

Any luck with your GPU speed issue? Look at mine... This is 1070ti. I also use 2 x nvme rated at 3GBps read. I'm using MSI x399 MEG Creation - Not cleared CMOS yet.

I tried strict node 1 (my gpu is on that node) and despite a very slow to power on VM, performance increase was neglible. I think waiting for a patched kernel will be a safer bet, I'm fresh out of ideas on how I can get close to bare metal memory performance.

Spoke too soon. After using the VM for a few hours, it became very unresponsive and sluggish to the point it hard rebooted itself, grrr. Checked UNRAID memory usage and i had none left. Back to square one.

somethings strange and buggy with the dynamix system temp plugin for sure. I get a bunch of k10 and nct7802 in the list. If I select k10 tdie, click apply, the temp list is empty and I have to uninstall the plugin, remove sensors.conf
