  1. Hi curently running 2x crucial mx500 (275gb each) in raid 1, although none are showing any errors in the smart both are over 75% life. I fancy chainging to seagate ironwolf 510 as my motherboard has a pci gen 3 x4 m2 slot. Do you think this will make my plex docker and a few others on my cache a little more snappier ? and does anyone  use one of the drives and  can recommend. 

     

    I do understand i will lose the reduduncy as wont be raid 1 anymore but i use backup every day for my app data so feel this would be enough.

    Assuming those libraries and drivers need to be installed, "sudo" is not needed/supported on unRAID (as the error suggests).

     

    The root user already has elevated privileges and you do not need to run sudo first before the apt install command.

     

    FYI - anything installed in the container this way gets lost when the container is updated.

    Hi so do we need these drivers if you using a intel kaby lake or later igpu.

    I just installed the new 1.21.x version, and HDR to SDR encode works like a charm with hw transcode.

    I have a 7700T (Kaby Lake), which supports hevc 10bit encode, decode.

     

    very nice, now remote users can watch HDR content easily. I even found the server side tonemap better, than the one done by PMP on directplay playback on sdr devices (w10).

     

    just my experience, maybe useful for others. I'm still on 6.8.x

    Hi thats good to know, did you have to download the extra stuff as I'm running a i5 7400. 

  4. Hi i only have 2x pci x1 slots left on my board and found an old nvidia nvs300 i wanted to use for pass thorugh on my windows 10 vm instead of vnc but cant seem to find it on list of pci devices with in unraid, are these even compatible 

  5. Hi quick question/query. will be replacing my aging intel g4560 dual core and motherboard very soon to something newer from intel 6 or 8 core as i want to start running a few VM's, i cuurently only really use my unraid for plex and use the onbaord igpu on the processor for transcoding and been working great with the go file and docker being modified. Will it be just as simple of replacing baord and cpu and powering up and my plex will still work as before. Many thanks for any help. Stay safe
