Hello,
I am planning to buy a new server (Dell R720XD) with the following specs:
- PERC H710
- Dell 5720 NIC
- 1X 750 Watt
- 32 GB Ram
- 2X 300 GB SSD
And some hard drives.
My questions:
Is it still a good server for today. I want to run some shares, a plex server, a cpanel server, vms, etc on it.
Can this hardware run UnRAID good?
Kind Regards,
Kuno Claes
Hello,
When is there going to be a builtin internal network function?
I am thinking to buy a rack server and virtualise PfSense in it but i also want to create internal networks from pfsense to other vms and docker services.
Hello,
I have an older laptop running Unraid and it works good. Now i have created a vlan in my unifi switch that switches the internet directly from my modem. If i add the vlan in unraid it works. Unraid gets an ip and i can even bridge it to a docker container. But if i create a vm it doesnt get an ip from my ISP DHCP. I cant configure a static ip because my isp has blocked that. The network adaptor on the vm works but only if i have it connected to my router.
Can anyone help me please for getting it to work with an external ip.
I know that i can use 16 ips and if i connect my pc to my modem it works.
Hello,
I am thinking and i am saving for buying a new server.
Right now i am using a old laptop with 12 gb as XenServer (Virtualisation Server).
I also will install unraid on that future planned server. But i would like to install UnRaid now on the old laptop.
If i buy an UnRaid License and i use it on the laptop, can i after i bought the server and stop the laptop just use the UnRaid License without problems on the new server?
Also:
Will UnRaid support the specs of my planned server and run very smoothly and can i virtualise pfsense on it?
