[WD Red 8tb running warm]

If it's the new non helium model it will run warmer, but still just means you need better cooling.

Could be the new model. Will check on that when I get home. Thanks

[WD Red 8tb running warm]

I know that my WD drives run a little warmer maybe 1 or 2 degrees than my Seagates but looking at your picture, I think you need to invest in more fans . 
 
You need to keep the temps down to below 40 on the drives or else you are risking eary hard drive failures. Just my opinion but I think others will agree.

I know that my fan solution could improve overall. It’s just that the temperature varies so much. I have three 120mm fans in my Silverstone DS380 and I have never had temperatures over 35 degrees when idle.

Not really concerned about life span at the moment as I am migrating the internals to a rack mount case soon. Then I can shove more fans in there and hopefully thermals will be better overall.

[WD Red 8tb running warm]

I just upgraded my parity drive from a generic seagate 6tb to a WD red 8tb and the temperature logged is around 15-20 degrees warmer than all the other drives. At the parity write it maxed out at around 55 degrees celsius. Now it is at 51 degrees.

Is this really normal?

Open the "go" file (located in your flash drive config folder) with Notepad or any other text editor and add the indicated lines to the file. 

 

Save and reboot to make sure the go file is successfully executed with the added lines.

 

Here is my "go" file for reference (the SSH section is for my rsync backup):

 

#Setup drivers for hardware transcoding in Plex
modprobe i915
chown -R nobody:users /dev/dri
chmod -R 777 /dev/dri

# Copy SSH files back to /root/.ssh folder and set permissions for files
mkdir -p /root/.ssh
cp /boot/config/ssh/medianas_key /root/.ssh/id_rsa
cp /boot/config/ssh/known_hosts /root/.ssh/known_hosts
cat /boot/config/ssh/backupnas_key.pub > /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
chmod g-rwx,o-rwx -R /root/.ssh

#!/bin/bash
# Start the Management Utility
/usr/local/sbin/emhttp &

 

Got it working! Thanks man!

Such an improvement when transcoding. Normally when i transcoded a 1080p file CPU usage was at 20%, now it's down to around 10%

To enable hardware transcoding in Plex, do the following:

 

This goes in the Extra Parameters in the Plex Docker config (you have to enable Advanced View on the docker edit page to see this). Note: this is for the linuxserver.io Plex docker (others Plex dockers may be different):

 

 

Also, you need some entries in your go file like this (after entering these commands in the CLI):

#Setup drivers for hardware transcoding in Plex
modprobe i915
chmod -R 777 /dev/dri

And in your Plex server Transcoder Settings page you need to enable hardware acceleration

 

 

 

How do I make those entries to the go file?

I added the extra parameters in the docker settings and this is a screen cap with info from the console.  Thank you!

cursor over the top and then "Mark as done" ?

 

Thanks but that is the problem. It doesn’t matter if I clck “mark as done”, these three particular movies just come back after I refresh couch potato

[[Support] binhex - Couchpotato]

I have an issue where three movies are stuck under "Snatched & Available" on the start page and I can't get rid of them. The movies are added to Plex and are listed on the library in CouchPotatoe. 

Any ideas on how to get rid of them? 

[[Support] Linuxserver.io - SABnzbd]

Ok cool!

Me being somewhat of a total linux noob though

It looks as if the latest version available is the version I mentioned (1.1.1rc1)

However Unraid hasn't given any update notification on in a while. On (linuxserver.io repo)

 

Should I use some other repo to be able to update to this version or should I just sit tight and wait?

 

[[Support] Linuxserver.io - SABnzbd]

I have a problem getting my 250mbit/s fiber connection to be fully utilized on v1.1.0 (latest?) and I posted to r/usenet on reddit.

https://www.reddit.com/r/usenet/comments/5647cj/sabnzb_slow_on_unraid_xpost_from_runraid/

Someone there said there was a prerelease for that fixed this problem for some users.

 

https://github.com/sabnzbd/sabnzbd/releases/tag/1.1.1RC1

 

Is there any plan to update the Docker to this version or is it available somewhere so that I could test it out and see if it fixes my problem?
