I set up a windows 7 VM and have Teamviewer running on it is this normal behavior or anything I need to worry about? homenas-diagnostics-20190128-1651.zip

Samsung has a 5 year warranty and the iops are a bit higher the WD has a 3 year warranty but what I found more revealing was when I looked the two up and compared them the WD drive weighs less than half of what the Samsung 860 evo does not sure if thats a typo but it came in at 1.31 ounces and the Samsung comes in at 3.04 would be interested to know what thats all about

I have my Teamviewer account attached to my windows 7 VM and works fine I only run it from my own devices and I can access anything on my home network

Thinking of pulling the trigger on this unit seems to be turn key would like to try some new (to me) hardware and setup a home lab for learning one question would be how is this raid card I would think it would need to be flashed to IT mode if that's doable hows the price $339.00 us in comparison to others out there

Has the genie been let out of the bottle?

look under the FAQ in this forum I believe instructions are there

Thank you sir! I thought I read that somewhere!

I think I've read that ssd trim is not functional if connected to an HBA can someone confirm that as this did not show up until I reconfigured my disks after installing my card homenas-diagnostics-20190106-0720.zip

The R7 1700x requires a dedicated GPU to even boot as it is not an APU so I don't think you can configure unRAID then pull the GPU if I understand your question correctly but I'll be interested to hear from others as I've never tried that approach with any of my Ryzen rigs As far as power it does not need to be that powerful unless your looking for performance in some activity which sounds like you don't need

It appears your cpu does not support VT-d https://ark.intel.com/products/77493/Intel-Core-i3-4360-Processor-4M-Cache-3-70-GHz-

Just curious are you adding this to the go file #Setup drivers for hardware transcoding in Plex modprobe i915 chown -R nobody:users /dev/dri chmod -R 777 /dev/dri and leaving this or should I delete this? #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility /usr/local/sbin/emhttp &

I tried tunnel bear but speed suffered too much I'm quite happy with ipvanish I like the kill switch feature and price well what is your privacy worth they are all pretty much competitive in that regard I guess it comes down to your network speed, and your budget

I just put this in my rig it was plug and play no setup required Dell H310 6Gbps SAS HBA w/ LSI 9211-8i P20 IT Mode for ZFS FreeNAS unRAID

I bought this on ebay was plug and play it must be flashed to IT mode but that was done by the seller I put it in my x16 slot at 8x works without issues gives me 8 sata ports via 2 SFF-8087 connectors, Dell H310 6Gbps SAS HBA w/ LSI 9211-8i P20 IT Mode for ZFS FreeNAS unRAID

With all the changing of cables and installing a hot swap bay and HBA I dislodged a stick of ram thus running normal at 20% of 16GB would equal 40%+ of and 8GB stick go figure🤐

Yep not sure when it started I guessed it was from adding the HBA but I have very little experience with linux and networking stuff I've been winging it and got away with it for some time but sometimes it catches up to me, I'll figure it out sooner or later appreciate your help don't think I would have found the "tools, new config, preserve current assignments without a few more days and allot more reading sometime information overload gets ahold of me, thanks again!

It was as high as 50% but has come down a bit:

Just an update and a thank you all went well I did a new configuration to put the drives in the order I wanted them in and went to bed while it ran the parity check all is good no errors and all data and drives appear correctly, I do have one question though I noticed my ram is hovering around 40% from a previous 20% is that because I added 3 new drives to the array

Sure will and post if issues arise

Yes I added afterwards and all is running good thanks for the help not going to worry about sata port assignment just going to add drives accordingly

Thanks Trurl I have brought down parity2 and put it into the array as disk5 and all is good Now I can add 3 new disks and reassign sata ports maintaining parity1 position? I purposely left parity1 as the seagate drive since its the only one I have to make it easily identifiable

Nope sorry have a dual port card in my sever a a single in each of my 2 rigs must of mis-read what you were trying to do

If you don't need to pass through a switch I set mine up peer to peer with 2 mellanox cards

I read this and added that i wanted to add some drives as well just to make sure i don't mess anything up so i don't need to format the second parity? I thought i had to format it with UD http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/FAQ#Can_I_reorder_my_drives_within_my_array.3F

So I've read the FAQ on moving/adding disks to the array seems simple enough I currently have dual parity which I want to reduce to a single parity drive so should I take down the 2nd parity disk add/move drives to my liking then what format the 2nd parity drive so it can be added as a data disk in the array then do a parity check? And while I have your ear is there any performance loss/gain by using an HBA over native SATA ports on the mother board I have an LSI 9211-8i P20 and have 8 data drives and 1 parity and 2 Cache ssd's is there a preferred configuration I should shoot for? as always appreciate any input before I blow something up oh and I have one of those cheap HBA's with 2 sata ports I believe it is a marvel chipset and have read issues about them being flaky could the ssd's run on it without issue
