  1. +1 and it doesn't need to be sophisticated. A settings box to limit parity sync / check speed to x MB/s (set to 0 for no limit) is sufficient.
  2. I think there's a bug. The VPN parameters are not passed to the docker. It ends up using the opvn file in the appdata folder. So if you want to change the server to anything other than the default nl PIA server, just edit the opvn file.
  3. I found this post and thought about your errors: Your errors may be due to the power management sending some devices into low power mode which takes time to wake up (sort of explain why you get time out). pcie_aspm=off I'm not an expert but simplistically in my mind disabling aspm is a more targeted approach than disabling mmconfig. According to Red Hat (link below), "disables ASPM to allow PCIe links to operate with maximum performance" https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/html/power_management_guide/aspm
  4. Is your socket Foxconn or Lotes? Did you have issues closing it? There seem to be a lot of issues reported with the Foxconn socket with screws too short so they don't catch properly. But most reports were in 2017 so I wonder if it was a bad batch / design issue that has been fixed eventually.
  5. Thanks. That's good to know. I have checksum checked many recently moved files and there has been no problem so I guess I just have to ensure nothing touches the files that are being moved. On 2nd thought though, I have had a few strangely corrupted files in the past that perhaps was due to refreshing Plex database while the mover is running. I'll have to keep that in mind.
  6. Awesome!!! Thanks a lot!!! ??? So it looks like with multifunction, the USB 3.0 controller splits out completely on its own - that's great news (looking similar to jcloud's Asus-based built so should be able to passthrough at least some USB ports to a VM).
  7. Wow, does this mean the mover is not to be trusted until the bug is fixed? ?
  8. Are you planning to update to BIOS 3.20? Note in case you missed it: Asrock said must update to 2.30 first before going to 3.20.
  9. How did the new BIOS go? did it solve your strange errors that require pci=nommconf to fix?
  10. Do you have the 2GPU the same way you have in the pic? i.e. GTX 1060 in first (primary) slot and HD5450 in 4th (secondary) slot? I have never had 2 different GPU in the same machine so have never managed to figure it out. Does unRAID only use the GPU in the primary slot? If the primary GPU is passed to a VM, does unRAID automatically switch to using the secondary GPU? Otherwise then basically the secondary GPU only purpose is to extract the rom of the primary one. I'm kinda reluctant to waste the primary PCIe slot on a cheapo GPU just for unRAID - especially when there are PCIe x1 GPU out there. Would be nice to be able to mount a 1070 on a true x16 slot + a cheapo GPU on the x1 slot and leaving both x8 slots + 1 true x16 slot for other purposes.
  11. Cheers mate. Looks like I should go Tai Chi direction with my build too. For your 2 GPUs, did you have 1 for unRAID and the 1060 for VM? or both passed to VM? The Samsung B-die RAM thingie, that only relates to running overclocked right? I plan to run my RAM at stock but just want to make sure. Did you add multifunction option to your syslinux acs override?
  12. Hey @Jcloud: sorry for the piecemeal questions - still planning things at the moment. Did you need to extract the bios rom thingie to pass through your 2 GPUs?
  13. Oops sorry. Meant to ask Jcloud. I briefly considered dual booting but then decide to go full on unRaid only. @Jcloud Did you pass through your NVMe SSD via PCIe i.e. like it's a GPU?
  14. Quick q: did you pass through your NVMe SSD via PCIe i.e. like it's a GPU?
  15. Do you know which controller is for which port? The ASMedia is presumably the 3.1 gen 2 type A + C at the back. I'm guessing from the controller naming that the problematic one is the internal 3.1 gen 2, which you shouldn't be able to plug your devices to. Confused.com
  16. Hey @Jcloud: some questions please What are the "quirks" you currently have (or not) with the build? Do you have a cheapo dedicated GPU for unRAID? What GPUs do you have for the VMs? Can you shutdown and then restart the VM without having to restart the host? <-- this was a massive inconvenience last time I dipped my toe in this passthrough thingie. With the upcoming 2990X, I am very much interested in merging my server and workstation into 1 machine now.
  17. @binhex: I think the VPN has to support port-forwarding in order for the web ui to work. Tested with several PIA servers and noticed this. Wonder if it's worth putting that on the first page in case people need to know. This is the official list of PIA servers supporting port-forwarding: CA Toronto CA Montreal Netherlands Switzerland Sweden France Germany Romania Israel
  18. Squid: please reinstate Sort By Date, I beg thee. That's the only way I know to check out the latest new apps without the old ones clogging up the view. E.g. if I last checked on 20/06 and found "duplicati" as the newest one, then if I check today 28/06 then I automatically know only to check out apps appearing above "duplicati". Otherwise without the Sort By Date, the "New / Updated" view has 45 apps, for which perhaps just 2-3 are really new since my last check. It is very hard to find 2-3 needles in the haystack. And like bags with the missus, there are apps I don't even know I need until I see them - IF I manage to see them.
  19. Does this need to be done every time unRAID is restarted? And why 6.3.0+ only? Was it a new undocumented feature or something?
  20. google is your friend and he's talking about someone physically stealing the storage device. Ahhh now that makes sense!!!
  21. Silly question but what is a SED disk? And how does a disk walk?
  22. Would this work? Install teamviewer on a VM. Use TeamViewer from a remote computer to control said VM. Run browser remotely through TeamViewer and access the GUI.
  23. Awesome! Do the 5-in-3 unit have fans on the inside of the cage? Do you have problems with dust?
  24. Well, connecting from outside can be done through OpenVPN and buying a product without proper research is a waste of money...
