  1. Hey, I have recently downgraded from a Dell R730 server that was running my unraid / Plex combo and am looking to build a new PC. This setup will be headless and only be used to run plex. No VMs, etc. I already have the followign hardware: LSI-9207-8i - for my 6 main drives and 2 cache drives. Nvidia P4000 - for HW transcoding SilverStone CS380 case with 8 drive backplane I am a bit confused at which mobo I should get to support max bandwidth for the two cards. Looking at the ASUS PRIME H770-PLUS D4 along with a i3-12100 CPU. Will this mobo give me the max throughput (required PCIe lanes) to support the two cards? Thanks.
  2. Ignore. It seems that the DNS has not fully updated since I provisioned the cert. All fixed.
  3. I am attempting to upgrade from 6.10.3 to 6.11.5 Stable. I get the msg: lugin: installing: /var/tmp/unRAIDServer.plg plugin: downloading: https://unraid-dl.sfo2.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/stable/unRAIDServer-6.11.1-x86_64.zip ... done plugin: downloading: https://unraid-dl.sfo2.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/stable/unRAIDServer-6.11.1-x86_64.md5 ... failed (SSL verification failure) plugin: https://unraid-dl.sfo2.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/stable/unRAIDServer-6.11.1-x86_64.md5 download failure (SSL verification failure) I can correctly resolve the URL. I have provisioned a certificate under Settings -> Management Access - CA-signed cert I can update docker containers successfully as well as plugins. I have tried to upgrade to the Next version (6.11.1) with the same error. Any help is appreciated.
  4. Hi, I have been running UNRAID on a Dell R510 for about 3 years and I upgrade to an R720 about 4 weeks ago. It has been running well. My Setup: Dell R720 with the following specs: UNRAID 6.10.3 Pro edition license Xeon E5-2670 115W CPUs 384GB RAM Onboard H710P HBA controller flashed to IT mode - Runs the 8 drives int he R720 Dual 1100W PSU iDRAC Broadcom integrated 4 port 2x 1GB + 2x 10GB NIC Riser 1: (3x X8 CPU2) Riser 2: (1x X16 CPU2 & 1x X8 CPU1) Riser 3: (2x X8 CPU2) - Note it is not the GPU Kit version I have the following cards in the server: Riser 1: LSI 9200-8e plugged into slot 1 (X8 CPU2) Riser 2: empty Riser 3: empty I have an MD1200 plugged into the LSI 9200-8e card above. This is working as expected. The LSI card posts on boot and the drives in the MD1200 can be seen by UNRAID under Unassigned Devices. The Problem: When I plug a GTX 1080 Founders Edition GPU into Riser 2 - Slot 4 (X16 CPU2), using the Dell GPU power cable plugged into the riser and the card, the LSI 9200-8e does not post anymore and it is not seen by the server. Everything else continues to work as expected, including UNRAID and the 1080 GPU. I can even see the 1080 GPU under UNRAID and am able to pass it through to a VM and it works. I tried moving the LSI card into slots 2 & 3 to see if it made any difference but I still get the same outcome. Any ideas? Do I have a conflict with the PCIe slots? How would I resolve this? Thanks. unraid-diagnostics-20220703-0936.zip
  5. I worked it out! For anyone interested: 1. Make sure you have "Unassigned Devices Plus" plugin 2. Go into the settings of Unassigned Devices 3. Enable "Destructive Mode" 4. Click on the red X next to the drive serial to remove the partition Obvious now that I know
  6. This is a great plugin! I incorrectly added 6 drives to my array before I used Preclear. I have since removed them from the array and they are showing up in UNRAID as "Unassigned Devices". Two are currently running Preclear as I didnt make the same mistake with these ones! The drives don't have any data on them and will go into a MD1200 DAS server that i will install shortly. How do I 'reset' the drives so that they show up under Preclear?
  7. Problem has been fixed. The issue was that I had used the SATA screw holes to mount my drives in the caddies. This meant that they were too far forward and did not make contact with the backplane. I moved them to the SAS screw holes and the problem was solved.
  8. One for the R510 team..... I have a Dell 12 bay R510 server. I crossflashed my Dell H200 cars that I purchased to an 9211-8i IT mode which was successful as per the instructions. I then installed the H200 into my R510 in the original slot that the H700 came out of. I then installed the two SSDs into the internal slots 12 & 13, then installed 6x 10TB drives in slots 0 to 5. The POST process shows the H200 card and I don’t see any errors. I can boot into UNRAID successfully and when i go to allocate the disks, it shows up both of my SSD drives but none of my 10TB drives. Seems that none of the SATA drives are being picked up. I am using the same cables that were connected to the H700 that I removed and replaced with the H200. Anyone got any ideas as to why this would be occurring?
