When I run controller benchmarks everything runs fine. When I try to benchmark my drives I get repeated speed gap errors where the benchmarking never complete, even though I disabled Speed Gap detection. I've tried this in Firefox and Chrome. I've re-installed the plugin. I've tried this plugin a couple years ago and had this Speed Gap issue, I still have this issue. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for your consideration! -Jason

My drives are all over the place , but the lowest is 180G free. I am writing to a cache pool though, that is 2 500GB drives and they are at 300GB free. So in my case there is plenty of space. I moved a bunch of files around yesterday and using sftp instead of samba is definitely my temporary fix. No issues at all.

I wanted to update this so it can be helpful to others who might stumble onto this post. My issue ended up being a "rouge" motherboard offset in my case that was apparently causing something to short on the back of the motherboard. As soon as I removed it the onboard usb ports worked perfectly. -Jason

An update. I'm using kde as the a desktop on Linux. The file manager, Dolphin, allows me to use sftp for setting up network shares. When I do that all my issues go away. The transfer speed is much better and I don't get any time outs or any of the cpu issues. There seems to be a lot of issues with Samba in unRAID right now.

Same with me. I've also tried Windows and MacOS. I've tried to eliminate as many things as I can. With and without my one VM running, I've removed a pci-e USB 3 card and AMD GPU. I have a bonded dual 8023ad (supported in my ubiquiti switch) that I have tried with and without. None of these things make a difference for me. -Jason

Are you also using Linux or Windows?

I've been running into an issue where as I'm moving files from my linux desktop to an unraid share the cpu usage on the unraid server increases. If I'm moving enough files I will end up with 6-8 cores (of 24) pegged at 100% usage and the file transfers will start to fail on the desktop side diving me an error that the location is unavailable. I'm on unRAID 6.8, but had this issue on the 6.7+ versions. I'm using a 500GB SSD cache pool and have plenty of space left open (300GB+). I have 48GB of ram and the server is using no more than 50% of the ram when these errors occur. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks -Jason unraid-diagnostics-20200107-1622.zip

Having a weird issue with a Supermicro X8DTi-F board. It has two internal onboard USB ports. If I try to boot my unRAID usb stick from either of these ports, it doesn't show up in the bios or as an option in the boot list. But, if I plug the same unraid usb stick into the usb ports on the back of the motherboard or plug a 10 pin-to-usb adapter into either of the two USB onboard headers I can boot through without any issue. There seems to be something disabling these onboard, internal usb ports. Any ideas? Thanks!

Just to update the update my choppy usb audio was fixed by passing through a usb 3.0 card to OSX following SpaceInvaderOne's video guide. now it is all good. No issues. I was even able to upgrade High Sierra to Mojave using the standard update method. Everything is working great. Thanks everyone for all the help and suggestions. -Jason

I had the cpu pinned, but not isolated. I will try that once I can reboot the unraid server. Thanks!

hdmi, and audio works through that fine, but it's not my preferred way to play audio. I'd rather use the usb.

Hello, I wanted to follow up on this for anyone having similar issues. I reinstalled following this guide and never was able to get around it until I found a Nvidia GT720 from ebay for $20. I popped it in and it worked right away with no problems. I get the booting everything and it works great. I strongly recommend this route. One issue I am having is that audio works great when pass through on the Nvidia card over the HDMI cable. But when I try to use a USB speaker the audio is really choppy. Has anyone else ran into this? Does anyone else know of a fix? I'm using the onboard USB ports. I also lose the keyboard and mouse from time to time and have to detach/reattach them from unRAID. I'm thinking it might be a Clover setting I'm missing. All these things work fine in other VMs. Thanks! -Jason

Hello, I do a lot of telecom work. Can we add an icon for freePBX (https://www.freepbx.org/) and Asterisk (https://www.asterisk.org/) Thanks! -Jason

I'm on unraid 6.6.3. I'm working with High Sierra. Everything works fine for me untill I try to pass through the gpu. At this point when I start the VM the animated reload button takes maybe 30 seconds to finish before it goes green, inplying it is running, but it never appears to boot up fully. I can't ping it and it never pops up on Slashtop. This is the second time I started over from scratch with the same result.
