Thankyou. I unplugged and replugged and all is back up and running now!

Yes, there is a cache drive installed. What do you think has happened?

Hi, I've updated Unraid and now i'm getting messages saying things like Docker has failed to start. Anyone able to help?tardis-diagnostics-20251227-2053.zip

Any suggestions here?

Hey, Just seen Ubiquiti's new UNAS 4 device and been considering changing to one from my Unraid. But I do have some thoughts and questions i'd like to ask here first. One beenfit of the UNAS 4 is that it is a lot smaller. Downside is it's less functional. My main current use of Unraid is as a NAS. I do have Plex on it but over the last year or so i've really not used that functionality much so wouldn't necessarily miss it. I'm finding unraid more "manual" on everything, Which I do understand is sort of the point. What I am wondering if you guys can help with are finding solutions to the main issue I have with Unraid and that's achieveing simple and easily configurable backups. I don;t want anything over-complicated or needing a lot of set up steps. Basically I have a share called Photos. I want to back that up to My Backblaze B2 account. I do not want it to backup in the form of duplicati (I already have that set up and running right now), I just need a one to one copy of my Photos share in B2. Just a nice easy GUI to enable me to set it up and run it. Can anyone help here?

Hi, I must have knocked the usb stick on my server yesterday and Unraid couldn't find it or said it was corrupted. I turned the server off, reseated the USB and restarted it and all is good but I want to place the USB internally so this can't happen. My motherboard is quite old (ASRock B360 Pro4). Do you ahve suggestions as to how I can put the USB stick inside the machine to avoid this? Also, I could do with a new USB stick instead of the crappy one i'm using. Can you recommend one?

Ok. That looks nice. Can’t find anywhere to buy it though. Not available on Amazon or Overclockers so I don’t know what price it goes for.

I wish to tidy up the internals of my Unraid and moving my HDD's into a cage is next up. Can anyone recommend a cage to go in 3 5.25 bays. Could you recommend one regular and one hotswap? I saw a topic but it all looked very out of date. I did see this one: https://global.icydock.com/product_45.html, but can't find anywhere that sells it. Is it any good? Is hotswap compatibility recommended? Just wondering? Also on a linked subject, are there guides for how to replace a drive in an unraid server if something goes wrong? I'm not an advanced user so could use some help. Thanks!

I don;t really do much with my server these days, but I really need a new case. Don't need it super pricey, but I have drive attached storage devices. Cabling is the biggest issue currently. The top half of the front of mine is taken up by 5.25 bays which i don't use. I'd like one with easy to manage storage drive areas. Recommendations?

Hi, Looks like one I made ages ago. It only had a couple of old files in. I will delete that share as I no longer need it, but have changed it to store on the Array. There was one small audio file in there.

As requested! Didn't know about that. Thanks. Hopefully this can provide some more info! tardis-diagnostics-20230820-1540.zip

Hi, Just wondering if this amount of usage is correct for my cache drive? I've initiated the mover several times but the usage doesn't appear to decrease? Is this looking ok?

I just checked these and enabled enhanced MacOS support. This now allows me to access the Backups directory. The lost+found folder i'm not too worried about. It still has the no entry sign on it and won't let me in.

But this is precisely why I posted asking for help. To find out why I cannot access it like a regular share.

It's exported as a Share so surely I should be able to access it just like any other share?
