[unRAID on QNAP TS-451]

How did you manage to get the FAN working correctly?

I also got UnRaid up and running on my Box, but the FAN is always spinning at full speed. I tried installing the Dynamix FAN Controller Plugin, but when enabled, it turns my FAN down to 9% and stays there. Meanwhile the CPU Temps are rising up to 68°C in idle. I guess the Plugin is monitoring the array temperature? Did you  experience such a thing?

Btw.: My model is the QNAP TS-469L

Thanks for the quick reply. This Unraid community is just great

 

I will move all my data off the NAS and try to get everything up and running. If someone else has ever tried this before, please feel free to tell

[Run Unraid on a QNAP NAS]

Hello there Unraid community,

 

A few years ago (4-5 years now)I bought a QNAP TS-469L and back then, I really did not regret it. But today, I really don't like the software anymore.

Sure: It has a clean Interface and is very easy to administrate, but for my taste now, it's too closed.

 

I already have an Unraid Server Running on my main Gaming Rig and I must say, I'm damn satisfied with  how smooth it is running.So I thought: Why not also run Unraid on my QNAP NAS Box?

 

I tried booting unraid 6.2 on the Qnap with the USB drive from my gaming rig --> Worked

It detected all drives --> Nice

RAM utilisation was at 35% (3GB RAM Installed)--> Seems OK to run a few Dockers and use SMB shares

CPU Usage was at 5-25% Idle --> Should suffice

 

The NAS has an Intel Atom [email protected] (which has a 64-bit instruction set I guess. The CPU is not listed in the Intel Ark DB)

 

The NAS has a 512MB DOM storage for the system.

Can I use the DOM to boot Unraid? Does a DOM have an UID I can register?

I have two reasons for wanting it to run from DOM:

1. I have one USB port more

2. I have the fear that, when the QNAP OS boots from DOM  instead of Unraid (for whatever reason), It whipes my disk at initialisation.

 

Has anyone ever tried such a thing? Does anybody know if things will work with 3GB and said CPU?
