Here is the hardware I have, sorry for not adding it in my original post: Intel i5-6600k 3.5ghz Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3 ATX LGA 1151 Motherboard G. Skill Ripjaws 16gb RAM Crucial 275gb SSD WD Black 3TB Hard Drive WD Blue 2TB Hard Drive Zotac GeForce GTX 1060 6gb video card Supernova 650 ATX power supply NZXT Phantom 410 Case Cooler Master Hyper 212 evo CPU cooler

I am trying to build a system that works as my server to hold movies (Plex) as well as be able to still play games on it (Starcraft for example). I have it set up according to a few online videos i've watched but would definitely like some more advice on any changes I can make. I also noticed my windows is running quite slow and not sure if there is something i'm missing to make it quicker or if its just slow because of the hardware I have. Any advice is welcome. I've attached the diagnostics for reference. Still looking for help if anyone has the time. unlee-diagnostics-20161119-1144.zip

I do have a keyboard/mouse and monitor plugged into it - I had to switch the monitor back to the CPU instead of the Graphics card so I could see what it was booting to. How do I go about "ping-ing" the IP address from another computer?

Last evening I installed Windows as a VM and made a few configuration changes following Lime-techs guide and now I can't access my unRAID at all! It acts like it isn't connecting to my network at all. I can get it to the login of "root@unlee~:" but that is all. I try to access from another computer that is on the same network and nothing...Did I mess something up when I installed Windows? How do I access unRAID to fix it? Any help at all is appreciated, and btw I am considered a novice when it comes to this stuff so you may have to "spell" things out for me. Thanks!

Hello all, A forewarning that I am very new at building computers and using complex software like UnRaid. I just recently built a combo PC/NAS and wanted to find more help on what I'm trying to do. I currently own 700 some DVD's and plan on ripping them to my server with Handbrake with Plex as my media center. I know plex is built into unRaid but where should I install Handbrake and my other software to rip the DVD's (on the C: drive or on one of the shares I created when installing unRaid)? Also, the other half of this is when playing games I use battle.net which can be downloaded to the desktop. Should I download this into one of my shares as well or download it to the C: drive also? When I tried downloading a game from battle.net to one of my created shares (after I installed the battle.net app to my C: drive) it game me an error saying folder not valid. Here is the computer that I built: Intel i5-6600k 3.5ghz Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3 ATX LGA 1151 Motherboard G.
