  1. Not sure if this has been clarified yet, but similar subscription/support models I've seen elsewhere give free patch level upgrades, e.g. if your support period ends on 6.14.x release, you will get any .x updates included, but you can't go to +6.15.x without renewing. This is what I hope LT will adopt for Unraid, and will actually make certain versioning decisions more important for them in regards to support and revenue.
  2. I'm happy to see this change as it will give Unraid the resources it needs to really shine and iterate new features and all the other things we all want. Also grateful that the licencing model doesn't penalise for time missed, Atlassian used to do this for their self hosted software and I hated it to the nth degree. Now get cracking on the multi array release please
  3. Use unassigned devices plugin to mount the smb or nfs share to unraid (appears under /mnt/remotes). This can then be mounted into the docker using the usual options. Of course most new synologys have the capability to run docker, and you might be better of running deluge directly on the synology to avoid complexity.
  4. Definitely one for the Emby developers over on their forum if you don't like the changes, but you can still see missing episodes, but it has been moved to the 3 dot icon:
  5. Just a heads up, I noticed the default tag set in this template is "master", but Loki moved over to the more PC term "main" 2 years ago. This means the default tag will load a 2 year old version of Loki, which is insecure and will likely have compatibility issues.

  7. Is it possible to modify the disk labels auto created by Unraid for disks on main? I have some new white label WD HC550s, and some are showing with a slightly different model name layout, even though its same model as others. Alternatively, any utilities to modify properties of the disk itself? Just looking to appease my OCD tendencies, this is not breaking anything.
  8. No problem sata adaptor https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09MSWNF7X short sata cables https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075H5ML4B sata power was a modified one of these https://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-Power-Splitter-Adapter-PYO4SATA/dp/B0086OGN9E Other pieces were 3d printed, but thick double sided tape would work also I'd imagine
  9. This change seems to have been reverted at some point in 6.12, no way to get cpu graph only anymore.
  10. that is a generic smb problem, this post has some suggestions for improving performance
  11. I looked at doing something similar to what you described earlier in the year, but I ended up taking a much simpler route with a pair of 1.6TB PM1735 pcie add in cards, which hit my size and performance targets, for a reasonable price all things considered. This is the ebay listing I bought them from https://www.ebay.com/itm/166082555920
  12. CUPS seems to support it (available as a docker), but I know people have hit and miss luck with that... perhaps as a plan B you could setup a VM and get the OS to share out the printer.
  13. Yes you need to use macvlan if you want unique mac address per container, otherwise they will share the nic's mac (ipvlan setting). The caveat being macvlan historically has caused some instability in some systems, although that seems to be largely fixed in 6.12+
  14. Asked for the same thing (and a little more) 3 years ago, and still think its a good idea
  15. I approach this by configuring a DHCP reservation in the router, and leaving the OS in DHCP mode. Note that you can get the MAC address needed for the DHCP reservation from the VM template.
  16. Just don't get an infiniband only card, QSFP+ is just a connector/cable and can be used for either protocol. This one does both modes, you may to change modes to use when setting up. This one is ethernet only. Note the final character of the model (T or S) means the bracket height (Tall or Short)
  17. There are SKUs of the mellonox cards that are infiniband only, but don't think there are any in the MCX353A line up. You can confirm support in the product manual https://network.nvidia.com/pdf/user_manuals/ConnectX-3_VPI_Single_and_Dual_QSFP_Port_Adapter_Card_User_Manual.pdf MCX353A working in Jerod's video below (after some troubleshooting)
  18. Upgraded from 7.3.83 to 7.4.162 today, couldn't get WireGuard working under the old version, but new version worked straight away. For anyone else using this version, do the QR code scans on your device? My pixel4a could not scan, even tried adjusting the contrast ratio in a photo editor.
  19. Just went through this myself, solution is to change permissions from read-only for group/other to R/W:
  20. I don't mind being challenged on the setup, this was all whipped together over a few days, even though I wanted to do it for ages The M.2 is a 250GB NVME that came with the unit from auction, its a freebie I wouldn't of bought for this but it'll get used for appdata etc for convenience + separation of roles, the pool name "cache" is the default first pool name and I've haven't sought fit to change it yet. I was able to setup what I wanted out of Unraid in about 5min, but I'm not afraid to nuke and pave this to get the format right. The targets for this server will be backups of vms, appdata, user docs, photos, music etc... basically all the important non-video media from my main servers. A mirrored 4TB will be plenty for now, and its really just a +1 safeguard given existing data is already mirrored and/or parity protected on other respective servers. Once first backup is done, I'm not expecting the backup deltas to use a lot of bandwidth... and if it does I won't notice anyway. Main array is a spare thumbdrive, next release should remove the requirement for it to exist. In release 6.12 you can customise the visible panels, I've simply hidden the array + parity panels (see below).
  21. Final ingredient was small + thin sata cables, which came today! Took the time while waiting to reprint drive carrier and riser/spacer in ASA black filament Happily running on 6.12.4 at the moment Looking forward to testing out subvolumes and snapshots plugin as part of this backup server journey
  22. A project server that I've been meaning to do for some time is a small backup server, able to be located seperately from my main rack. I came across the M710q at local auctions and eventually picked one up for under AUD$100. Out of the box it is well specced, with one m.2 slot and one 2.5" drive... but I really wanted 2x 2.5" so I could run a raid1 pool for backups. Enter a slew of additional purchases, modifying a sata splitter, and a couple hours on the 3D printer to prototype a solution:
  23. Can confirm this was impacting me on 6.11.5, and the Connect update resolved the issue.
