My cache drive pretty much stayed fine without error. No thumbs down. Everytime after reboot, it works back again. I believe my diagnostics have the cache drive details, WDC_WD20EFRX-68EUZN0_WD-WMC4M1780430 - 2 TB (sdi). Any test I can run before checking the cable?

noted, I'd do that as well if I can RMA

In general, if the Number of Reallocated Logical Sectors is under 500, should we start replacing? If it isn't increasing that is.

I tried it again now. It says contact the place of purchase. Bought it off ebay US. Am in Philippines. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I tried to check with Seagate online, it somehow says cannot be honored due to purchase by certain entity? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok, can i first acknowledge it, and see it increases some more? In the meantime, I will be looking to buy HDD already. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Whenever possible, I'd like to put off that replacement for another time, since HDDs are so expensive now. tower-smart-20210808-1723.zip tower-diagnostics-20210808-1726.zip

Will check it out! Thanks!

Currently accessing it via unassigned plug-in. Was thinking if an IP can be assigned to it, it will be easier to transfer files to and from. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not sure if this makes sense. If I plug a USB drive, can it be assigned an IP address, so the USB can be accessed via SMB? There is a plugin called USB manager. I installed it, but I don't know what it does.

I somewhat get confused in this. I must have remembered wrong. Thank you for clearing things up. I'll check. Will post if have further clarifications.

I have folders that currently exist in both cache, and array. e.g. downloads (use cache only share), it can currently be seen in /mnt/cache/downloads and /mnt/user/downloads. I don't know if I may have changed setting before to not only use cache, but I've since double checked, and made sure shares like that use cache ONLY. There are several folders, such as domains, iso, etc, most troublesome of which is, my appdata folder, existing in both cache and array. I only want them to be in the cache folder. How do I migrate them without corrupting config, or whatever files? I'm using things like Emby server, Sab, Sonarr... Will it be as simple as using Unbalance plugin? Unbalance doesn't cover appdata folder in moving.

Yes. I like it. I have a firewall at home, Sophos Xg, and I don't know how to configure it to be accessible from outside, and still be secure. I may be a victim of my own devices 🙂. I honestly believe it's a good sync solution. Not a backup. But after syncing, can be backed up. I will have to revisit it once again to see if I can get the reverse proxy working. I don't know if there is new instructions from spaceinvaderone already...

Thank you for sharing your experience. It is exactly what I wanted to find out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok. Would you say it is also because you've been updating QTS new versions on old hardware? Is this a reason for concern? Just like IOS on iPhone, the hardware can handle several rounds of upgrades, but each upgrade makes it slower and slower. Eventually, some apps won't run. Do you experience this on Qnap if hardware has been around for 5 years? As for os takes a long time to boot, I assume you don't have to reboot all the time.

I am particularly curious on why change OS of old Qnap NAS to Unraid. What part of the system, initially functioning well, is no longer acceptable after say, 5 years of use.

Understood. This is more of an IOS limitation rather than Resilio's lack of features. Thanks!

I checked out resilio. Price seems reasonable. Though are there quirks in ios? Such as deleting on ios, doesn't delete on other sync folders? There is also something about media folder not accessible? https://help.resilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/205506539-Sync-for-iOS-Peculiarities Can you confirm? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Resilio for ios or Android? Does syncthing has ios app? I use syncthing to sync folders between 2 NAS. It will be good if it has ios app. Will research resilio for ios. This has pay Right? What is imazing? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi. Anyone know of a method to do this?

I see. I guess I can't take advantage of my current GPU. What kind of CPU can Handbrake benefit from? I currently have 1050Ti connected. I only have 1 single slot available, and should be 1 slot width only. Will GT710 video card produce good results?

Hi. Is it possible to install this driver, and use it when needed? I also have GPU passed through to VM. Will turn off VM when about to use Docker containers that use the GPU.

Why is there a need to change MTU value? Is this only applicable because it's Qnap? Never did this to my own Unraid. Maybe I should. Please explain further.

You mean under qnap, certain larger drives aren't recognized, while booting into Unraid, it 'sees' the large Drive?
