You'all are, correct. Added to array, 1-2 mins formatted and added. Thought UD worked with the plugin, I followed the reports though. Makes sense, thanks!

RESOLVED = Unassigned Devices does not always show information from the "preclear" script. Followed the actual logs information from the script which all showed pass. Shut down array, Assigned the drives, and they immediately formatted within a few mins and were added. Thank you Did a preclear on 5 drives. Only one is having "issues" As seen by the screen shot, they all have logs, they all have the "preclear" format, except one, When I click on the "eye" icon, i get this ############################################################################################################################ # # # unRAID Server Preclear of disk WD-WMAZA7446147 # # Cycle 1 of 1, partition start on sector 64. # # # # # # Step 1 of 5 - Pre-read verification: [6:33:37 @ 84 MB/s] SUCCESS # # Step 2 of 5 - Zeroing the disk: [6:25:48 @ 86 MB/s] SUCCESS # # Step 3 of 5 - Writing unRAID's Preclear signature: SUCCESS # # Step 4 of 5 - Verifying unRAID's Preclear signature: SUCCESS # # Step 5 of 5 - Post-Read in progress: (35% Done) # # # # # # # # # # # # ** Time elapsed: 1:51:52 | Current speed: 105 MB/s | Average speed: 105 MB/s # # # ############################################################################################################################ # Cycle elapsed time: 14:51:18 | Total elapsed time: 14:51:18 # ############################################################################################################################ so i know its running, but the system doesn't see it, would a reboot help? (can't do it yet as the drives are still finishing post read) But the fact that the other drives show the other information is odd/bizarre....

I Feel so effing retarded. I think I would have felt better had you said "Scroll to the bottom" =-P I seriously google searched and looked at CACHE pages to find the old information. when it sat two seconds below the bottom of what I previously scrolled....

RESOLVED = Did not scroll to the end of the current sales page. My bad. The only information I found was on the outdated sales page. If I purchase a Plus key, what is the price to upgrade later? Right now I will have 8 drives + 4 Pool Cache. so that hits my 12 limit. Then when drives go back on sale, I will be adding about 3 more to my current setup since that is all that fits in the case. So that would be 11 Drives + 4 Cache. I can go down to 1 drive in the cache to hit the 12 drive limit, but was wondering if at that time I decided to upgrade to the pro key, what the cost would be. Also, if I get a different setup, can I just plug my usb into that new computer and retain the license / setup? (as long as each drive is selected to the same drive number/parity as before)

I believe that the limits are currently imposed by the OS/unRAID itself not the license, so if unraid INCREASES to allow more drives, then the pro license will expand, while the Plus would probably stay at the current 12 drive limit. The second page you posted is old(er) (outdated) information see the * below * while Pro keys don’t have an attached-device limit, unRAID OS versions have different assignable device limits. See the FAQ section for more information.

You can. Go into the services and put it to YOUR user name on your windows machine. I had to do this for Sonarr See if you can do that for google drive, and then see if you can mount it.

Why redo anything? This is okay afiak. Doesn't change anything. My DROBO does/has the same "problem", thats worked fine for 6+ years.

Does this help you guys? I only have "root" on my unRaid Server. Shares are SMB, Public. I do not need to sign into the shares. Mapped as a network drive or folder, everything mapped from unRAID has this Just like you if I uncheck it, it reverts back. I tried loading utorrent with RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR and it cannot write to the drive, if I open up utorrent normally under my login name, it has write access.

ty, up and running again the way i want !

https://forums.lime-technology.com/?topic=48508.msg484482?topic=48508.msg484482#msg484482 topic doesn't exist which is Can I change my cache pool to RAID0 or other modes?

Question: My next question is, I have 4 SSD drives for cache, it should be 1TB total, unless it parities the drives then should be 756GB, but its only 500gb, is this by design? Next: Johnnie.Black I had tried searching the site for everything related to the SAS2208 AND my particular Backplane (RMS25PB080) and could find nothing, not even really "Trouble", more or less that it didnt WORK.. I tried even Backplane, Reverse SAS to Sata ports. Nothing would work. Then i got the bright idea. Use the RMS25PB080, setup EACH drive in its own drive, so itll pass it to the host that its THERE. loaded up unRaid and it saw EACH drive. The question is, is this ASKING for trouble? here is what it looks like It isn't the "easiest" to use. If I add or remove a disk, I have to know which drive corresponds to which drive. I have to fully boot down the system, install the drive, go to the raid bios controller setup, initialize the disk, put it in its own drive disk, so itll pass it on to unraid. Load the system and then the drive is there. My next question is, I have 4 SSD drives for cache, it should be 1TB total, unless it parities the drives then should be 756GB, but its only 500gb, is this by design? EDIT 2: Update, since my dumbass couldn't bypass the Raid controller that was giving me problems with the Breakout cables, I used Ockhams Razor, Remove the $#%#$% card. System utilized my breakout cables, no issues.!!!!!!!!! Up and running! now reading disks properly with TEMPS!

Thanks for the help with the USB issue, it is booting on old USB and booting up. I have an Intel RMS25PB080 Raid card. I am 99.99% certain this is causing the ability of unRAID not able to see my drives, as when I boot into the RAID card bios, it reads the cards (well some). After looking through the wiki I did NOT find this card as "cross flashable" however after searching, https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/lsi-raid-controller-and-hba-complete-listing-plus-oem-models.599/ I found it to be a LSI SAS2208 based Controllers. Which from the wiki IS compatible. I went into the intel raid bios and disabled "controller bios" but it still is taking charge of the drives not allowing a true passthrough. What are some steps I can do to get this to work with this raid card? As of right now, I am about ready to just buy some breakout cables to go from the controller card (hot swap) to the motherboard, but it will eliminate the total number of drives I will be able to connect so I am hoping that it is just a setting or a quick update I can perform on the card to make it work with unRAID. Definitely need some assistance with this one, thanks! EDIT: RESOLVED = Remove the Card from the motherboard, Even with nothing connecting to it, mobo still wanted to use the card cause it was connected.

Yeah It seems to be "working" with the 4GB PNY but not the cruzer fit that I bought specifically for this. Right now NOT a big deal, but will still work with getting the system "read" right then worry about the USB.... Resolved, booting up with no issues either way.....new problem, new post? this can be closed

Tried 4 ports. It seems with the "boot with GUI" I am able to load up the login screen, so I put the root/<blank> that I had to search for because I didn't see that ANY where in any documentation. I THINK it is semi working, but with the "rstev" enabled or whatever its called, which allows the SATA Card to passthrough as "Sata" devices is only reading 1 drive right now, I think with a little more trial and error I MIGHT get it working, this will be the first reboot without "selecting" the boot with gui I will see if it goes through.

RESOLVED = Used different USB, still working on using Cruzer fit, may have to use a different formatter/program to make proper bootable. Greetings Everyone, --New here, (yikes) I bought a cruzer fit (8gb) for my setup (I can go into the setup below though I do NOT think that will change much) Formatted per instructions, (FAT32) using windows disk management. Transferred files. Made bootable on a windows 10 machine. Put into system (setup properly in bios I think, will have info below) and told to boot from USB, goes to boot, fails to boot from USB. Formatted x2 and same thing x2. Used an OLD PNY 4GB drive (don't want to use this as I don't know if it has a GUID for proper licensing) same steps as above, booted and was able to run MEMTEST on all my memory. Afterwards attempting a regular boot (#1, non gui) I have a video of the full boot, here are some "noticeable errors" that I see. usb 1-1: device not accepting address 2. error -110 usb 1-1: new high-speed USB device number 3 using ehci-pci usb 2-1: device not accepting address 2. error -110 usb 2-1: new high-speed USB device number 3 using ehci-pci This went to number 5 then usb usb1-port1: unable to enumerate USB device then continued with a few more prompts and then this "error" waiting for /dev/disk/by-label/UNRAID (will check for 30 sec)... This displayed for maybe 15-16 seconds followed by more prompts then I read /dev/disk/by-LABEL/UNRAID not found! perhaps you forget to set your USB flash boot device label to UNRAID[code](sic) but it is.... then it goes and says [code]unRAID Server OS Version 6.3.4 Default via 192.168.1.1 dev br0 metric 211 192.168.1.0/24 dev br0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.113 metric 211 Tower login: However, to me nothing loaded right, and I tried http://tower on my PC, nothing, i even tried the IP address. Tried enter/return and keys on the server, and hangs. Any help? System: dual E5-2630 v2 processors (only using one currently) 48 GB (3x16GB) DDR 3 ECC RAM I think the MOBO is, S2600CP I have AHCI enabled and I think its INTELRSEVTi setup (this allows passthrough for SATA DRIVES) All Virtualization enabled/Hyperthreading enabled etc Bios Screens: Let me know if there is more I can provide. Update: Tried PNY drive with GUI, boots to "unraid" screen with "username". Never setup Unraid, tried to type username (on the HOST PC) and keyboard (USB) not working. This feels like something just isn't loading right......
