thanks, im only thinking of getting a tiny arc a310 or similar to use TDARR to convert my plex lib to av1 as all almost all h.265 and I know that format is dead now so when I download new media I will convert to av1 rather than h.265 if that make sense, do you think it will be ok for that ?

I have a pcie x6 slot on my itx mobo and would like to know exactly how its wired as I'm thinking of getting an GPU for it if that makes sense? is there anyway of knowing via a command or something? (running unraid 6.12.13 ) thanks in advance! Ash

what an absolute legend!! just wat i needed, cant thank you enough

Thanks, id just like somehting baked into the os so I cant break anything 😄

I love unraid and I would love the ability to schedule auto reboots of the server to keep everything fresh esp with docker and plex being sometimes temperamental if not rebooted every week or so kind regards! Ash

YES ive figured it out, It was my error as when I was using the app 'unassigned devices' to copy new files over I accidentally was selecting "disk 4/ PLEXMEDIA" rather than "Cache/PLEXMEDIA" !! its now consuming the cache as its transferring!! thank you so much for your help kind sir/mam! 😄 + I will look into moving that over thank you

Hi. thank you, I have checked the pool device like you suggested and seems to be on already: + I have attached the diagnostic, and thanks! bignas-diagnostics-20240526-1759.zip

Hi, thank you i understand, however if I understand how it should operate, when I copy a new file to the PLEXMEDIA share it should use the cache but it doesn't, it just sits at 22% Im doing a little research and someone mentioned that it may be a setting that needs to be changed in the 'global shares page'? however I cant see an option to enable cache in it or am I looking at the wrong page? thanks in advance!

Hi all, Im struggling to get my unraid server to use the cache, its stays at 22% regardless of where I copy files from/to I have set the shares to use the cache for primary storage and the hard drive array as the secondary I have attached images of the settings ive used, any help would be very much appreciated

I got that working many thanks!

great thanks i will have a look at that way

Hi all. First time posting here so please be kind 😄 Im loving unraid so far, first time user mainly for plex storage server My only problem is I dont know the best way to transfer files ive download from my synology nas to my unraid server ? at the moment im logging into my windows pc and manually transfering file between the two mapped drives on my pc but it seems kinda uneficent, is there a way to directly transfer from my synology nas to the unraid server using its web gui? Thanks in advance, Ash
