  1. Yeah, I saw that. I have an external 6TB drive to aid in the process, and everything is backed up to Amazon Cloud just in case of disaster. It will only take 80-90 hr's to restore
  2. Are you trying to RDP in the local network, or from the internet?
  3. Yeah, I know, but I spent a long time getting everything working perfectly, so I'm hoping to take the easy route and migrate everything over. Thanks, I'll be sure to do that. I have two cores assigned to each VM right now, but they rarely use >20% cpu unless they're extracting files
  4. In Hyper-V you can allocate a fixed amount of memory instead of dynamic, I assume KVM can do the same?
  5. I'm going to be using all the sata ports on the motherboard, so adding a disk later isn't an option. Right now, the VM's and Docker's only consume ~20gb of space, which would leave close to 100gb for caching. That might be enough, but what happens if the cache disk fills up? Does it simply revert to the array or do bad things happen?
  6. Hey all, decided to clean up my ragbag "servers' and make the switch to unRaid. I'm converting a GA-MA770T-UD3P (16gb, 4 x 4tb disks, a 120gb ssd) from win10 to unraid. That box presently hosts 2 ubuntu VM's and a few Dockers. Performance is good. So here are my questions: I've found directions on how to convert the Hyper-V VM's to KVM, but wanted to see if anyone has actually done this. Any pitfalls to be aware of? Most of my data is movies/TV, large files that never change, unRaid seems perfect for that. My downloaders, SABnzbd and rtorrent, have a lot of disk I/O, with all the downloading and unpacking. Am I understanding correctly that I can use the SSD as a cache to reduce the load on the array? In the present arrangement, my VM's and dockers consume about 10gb of ram, leaving 6gb for the host. Is 6gb ram plenty for the unRaid system? Thanks for the help!
