  1. Hi all

     

    I just build my first unraid server. I got few question on shared drive. I got the unraid server pro by the way.

     

    1. I did create another user to be able to access folder's

     

    2. I want to be able to connect to a map drive and have all  my folder's (movies,tv series, picture, io's ) 

    I saw on the internet how to create shared drive. (See picture's)

     

    So i did it but when i'm trying to connect it on my other pc (windows 10) on shared drive I can only map one folder at a time.

    But if I'm opening the path directly by writing \\tower\ i'm able to see all folder's. But i'm not able to map it like this with shared drive.

     

    What is the best way of doing it.

     

     

    Thank you

  2. I wouldn't.  The standard configuration is that you would plug both the unRAID NAS and the Dell T3500 into your switch/router and let it make the connection between them, that should work fine.  If you have multiple switches I'd try to have them both on the same one.

  4. Hello and welcome!

     

    I don't have direct experience with that motherboard, but I can offer some general answers:

     

    * do you think all component will be compatible for unraid.  Yes, they should work.

    * since i'm not going to do vm on this computer i3 would be enough ? also for ram An i3 is fine for a basic NAS with a few Dockers.  You mentioned Plex though.  Do you want this machine to support Plex transcoding?  How many streams?  Also, you could probably do this build with 8GB of RAM.  16GB is fine, but honestly 32GB would be overkill.

    * Also would lsi it mode 8x would fit with this motherboard ? They should be compatible with that motherboard.  If your question is whether it will fit physically without any obstructions, I'm not sure.  That happens, but rarely.



    hi thk for the anwser.

    plex transcoding will be operate by my actual dell t3500 wich is working great.

    my only concern is that should i plug the new nas directly in my t3500 so i will have faster result with 1gbits external card ?

    thx

    * Also would lsi it mode 8x would fit with this motherboard ?
