sorry to bug but just looked at specs. My old machine has a motherboard from 2004 ASUS A8N-SLI Premium and a AMD Athlon 64 4000+ - ADA4000DEP5AS cpu. It's 64 bit but boy it's old. Do you think it can handle the latest software? I'm looking to just use the box as storage to archive videos. Thanks

So I can go straight with the latest version. No need to do upgrades from old to new?

I purchased unRAID Server Pro-2 "Description: unRAID Server "Pro" Registration Key 2-Pack" back in 2011 and used for several years. I'd like to build a new box with my existing usb keys and wanted to know if I can just download the newer software from your site and go to town. I'm just looking to build a big ass drive for media storage. Can you confirm that this can be done. Thanks

I took the 3 drives i had in the 2nd icydock and connected them direct to power/sata cables. System is working now. Looks like a bad ICYDock. See attached for what is going on now (parity check). What is the best way for me to shrink my system for now to use only 5 drives in 1 Dock and 1 single IDE drive? Right now I think i have close to 4 Terrabyte of storage capacity but am not even close to using it (for now). I'd be more then willing to run a webex so someone can jump around the system for suggestions.

I should have waited before that post. See picture attached. It's up but not running the array due to missing drives.

The mem test was fine (ran for 2 days). Here is what i just did. Let me know if i am totally confused If I have 9 drives in the system but only have seen data appear on 2 physical drives, can i disconnect those other drives to at least get to the data (i did)? The system now booted ok and it is staying fine at the root. Browser won't see the system by my mapped drive to the flash drive is working (i can see all files on flash) I can also telnet in via putty and here is that shot.

Do you think my PSU is faulty?

I am running unraid server 4.7 for over a year with no problems. Problem just started and now see issue when i plugged monitor in (usually just use Putty but it wouldn't connect). The attached pic shows the issue and when looking for problem in forums it appears to be hardware. I just don't know how to go any further with debugging since it locks up with this screen after i get to the Root Login prompt. This is what my GO file looks like #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & /boot/unmenu/uucd /boot/packages && find . -name '*.auto_install' - type f -print | sort | xargs -n1 sh -c To check some hardware on the machine, I booted ubuntu off another cruiser drive and all looked fine. I could see the 7 hard drives, browse net and all looked good. Here are main components to machine.

P.S. I barely know Linux/Unix
