Keep in mind that 2011 boards are rare enough that you could buy something which works today and look for something you really want for the next couple of months and then simply sell the other one again.

http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=43317.0 Works perfectly for me. Do note that you need a OpenVPN license if you want to have more than two concurrent users.

I'm sorry if i'm being stupid but, i add the container, leave everything default and get nothing but, This webpage is not available ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED I get this with both the Owncloud containers listed in community applications.

Everything is working fine now. Slow transfer speeds got fixed by turning on Jumbo Frames on my network card and increasing the send/recieve buffers. The dockers issues are also solved after completely deleting the docker img and restarting the server.

Yes but how do i fix it? Its not like the share is listed in the shares menu.

Just tried to get the diagnostics through ssh, https://mega.nz/#!7htEDayC!mbHRE_ItIFIL-dRrc6OFNbn_1a1u0wGsmHbVvJaABJo The http://tower/log/syslog, https://mega.nz/#!jhNC2TJS!uyKTv4C-lvaSL6J0GS8QmiBmDwLVPeQWSrAEyymF_Gc syslog through cp /var/log/syslog /boot, https://mega.nz/#!bwcn2SAZ!f_enqDRpYmMZSngo9Gt4tgpag0BUgw-N6r-ctb7rcNQ And here's diagnostics from earlier today, https://mega.nz/#!mtcFEIbY!OOR6Eg9ebFROz_H7dXoiEb59zbS_VDPrkeRsBfrE_AY

Can you expand on that read-only problem a little more... The mnt/ssd is probably because you're mounting an ssd drive through the unassigned devices plugin. Entirely possible if not for the fact that there's only 1 ssd in the server and i don't have the unassigned devices plugin Also, when i create the img in /mnt/ssd/ the number of writes on the cache ssd increases. Scenario: I turned Docker on, put the img in /mnt/cache/, added the Lime-Tech Plex container, tried to add a second container and then i got a similar error to this one, https://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=42932.0 I came across the above topic, deleted the img, recreated it again in /mnt/cache/, added the Lime-Tech Plex container, tried to add a second container and then the error happened again. Then tried the same thing all over again but started with a different container and same result. Several variations of this happened when i noticed the /mnt/ssd/ share, wrote the image to that and haven't had a problem since. And i was about to end my comment on that note when i thought "lets try adding a container". Tried to add l3iggs Owncloud container, Full log, https://mega.nz/#!ilVjxIbB!5qFiIZrUwGkbrpcMg0XW4TPFQ8LvaoS4kZ5zbQbupIk I'dd add Diagnostics but that results in: 404 File not found

Confirmed that its network issues. As a small side question, as i understand it docker appdata/img goes in /mnt/cache/ but every time i do that the docker img seems to go in to read-only after a while. However i also have a /mnt/ssd/ share where it doesn't do that.

I don't know what happened but suddenly the individual disk write tests are 20 MB/s faster. The slowest result i'm getting now is faster than the fastest one in the first round of tests. I did restart the Plex docker between the first test and the ones i'm running now. Any chance that the indexing Plex was doing last night had a residual effect on speeds today? Unraid > Desktop (to SSD) just got me the most consistent transfer ever, it never dipped below 63 MB/s and never went over 64 MB/s. Single 11.8GB movie file. I also just tried 3 1080p Castle episodes 350MBish a piece and those also did a very consistent 63-64 MB/s I assume i can backup the Plex folder and copy it back afterwards so i don't have to re-index everything?

Hi sorry to bother people with this but i just started using Unraid and i was wondering if there was any way to crank up my transfer speeds. I'm in the process of copying all my data back and its taking a long ass time. When i'm mass transferring data to the server i get about 70 MB/s to 80 MB/s up until when the cache drive fills up and then it falls back to about 50 MB/s. Do you guys have any suggestions to increase speeds or if there is anything wrong? Also some context on the strange mix of disks, most of them are second hand. All the 3TB Hitachi's came from Iomega's Dutch repair center where they used them to test RMA'd NAS devices. Got them for 70/80/90 euro's a piece with barely any hours on them.

There's bound to be some syncing software which can do "New device detected, copying everything!".

Small stylish cheap case with room for hotswap bays? Those are some words which don't really fit together. Drop the stylish and go for a Silverstone DS380. (yes, that is cheap) Secondly, look for a motherboard with on board wifi or get a USB wifi adapter because you are inevitably going to need that PCI-e slot empty for more sata ports. The Gigabyte GA-H170N-WIFI maybe? AC wifi, 6 sata ports, socket 1151, 2 RAM slots. (do M.2 slots work in Unraid? As cache maybe?) Get a single 8GB RAM stick, that leaves you room to expand.

FYI, Ublock Origin doesn't seem to have any issues.

Thanks for all the help guys. The array is building right now.

I assume i can just designate a 4TB as the parity drive if i ever start expanding again?

Not a problem, i have enough storage capacity spread around the house to temporarily stash 10TB. So, 7x3TB as data 1x4TB as parity 1x120GB SSD as cache That would work right?

Hello! I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section, its my first time posting here. I'm currently on the verge of overhauling my media server and i need some advice on if Unraid is right for my situation. Specs: Intel Core i7 860 Gigabyte P55-UD6 12GB Non-ECC RAM 7x 3TB, 1x4TB(Parity drive?) Miscellaneous 1TB to 2TB drives which i may or may not end up using SAMSUNG MZ7WD120HAFV 120GB SSD(Cache?) Unused Dell H200 for future drive expansions Its running Windows Server 2012 with Drivebender for pooling/redundancy. Up until now i've always thrown in a couple of extra drives every time it was getting full but that isn't possible anymore due to a recent financial setback. Of course the data is still piling up despite my financial inability to expand. I have already taken some measures to work around buying new drives such as deleting stuff i haven't watched and never will and re-encoding a lot of stuff to HEVC. Despite that i'm down to 2TB of free space which will likely fill up in the next two/three months. Because i don't have a practical way of backing up 10TB of data my only data loss protection is the file duplication in Drivebender which automatically makes certain that all selected files are on two different drives which means i'm basically running Raid1 regarding storage capacity loss. What do i need? Less storage capacity loss Drive pooling Plex support Ability to pull out the remaining disks and access data in the event of multiple disks failing I would very much prefer to avoid command lines/consoles mix and match drives Ability to saturate Gigabit, maybe 2 Gigabit depending on the future As i understand it Unraid ticks all of the above boxes?
