Ended up ordering the LSI SAS9340-8i ServeRAID M1215 12Gbps SAS HBA P16 IT mode from The Art of Server. Baby steps ordering parts.

What expansion SAS card would you recommend? I will eventually replace the hard drives for larger one, but at the moment funds are limited.

Thank you. I really appreciate your help on this. I've been Googling for days trying to figure out if that gaming board was going to work well with unraid. I don't mind spending a little more $$$ just to future proof. However, I will mainly use this server for streaming movies, music, and possibly setting a cloud storage for work / school related files.

Someone locally is selling an i9 10900k cpu with MSI Z490 gaming edge MOBO for $300. Would these be a good combo?

I have not used my UnRaid server for several years now. I mainly used it to stream movies via Plex inside / outside network. Now, I am thinking of installing outdoor cameras and using my UnRaid to store video, and setting up my own cloud. I have dual parity drives, and 1 cache drive. I've got about 31 TB, but I am slowly trying to upgrade my drives from 2TB to 4TB or larger depending on price. I had a Intel NIC Pro 1000 GT, which for some reason or another died, my MB NIC is Realtek RTL8111E, and not very reliable. Current set up: Mobo: AsRock Z77M CPU: Intel i5 3570K RAM: G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2133 (PC3 17000) Case: AZZA Helios 910 CSAZ-910 Mid-Tower HDD: Total 31 TB PSU: Corsair TX750 SAS: AOC-SASLP-MV8 UnRaid Pro License I have spent a few weeks looking at people's set up--some very expensive and others pretty inexpensive. I know I want to stick with Intel since it is what I found to be the most reliable. I can't really decide on what to buy, and I really don't want to spend $$$ and later on find out that I ordered the wrong parts. For example, I am not sure if I will be able to continue using the ACO-SASLP-MV8 or will I have to upgrade this as well. Thanks for any help on this matter!

This worked for me as well. Thanks. Using Windows 11 and UnRaid 6.11.1

Awesome. Thank you.

I'm a member of several other projects from tech, crypto, NFT, etc, and they've got a discord channel where members can interact and help each other live from anywhere around the world. I was wondering if UnRaid has ever thought of creating a discord channel?

@JorgeB I've enable the LAN for my mobo, and it worked. Thank you for the help! Now, I need to order a new NIC, but I can at least access my server!

I’ve got the mobo NIC. I’ll try it out. I had to get this Intel NIC because it’s more reliable.

I was reading a different post where they recommended to delete the network file since unraid would create a new. So, I deleted mine, but didn't backed it up. So, this is the log file from that. tower-diagnostics-20220922-0219.zip

I have not used my unraid server for several years. I've had it in storage for a while. Today, I've decided to turn it on, check parity, and update the OS and possibly the hardware, but I cannot get it to get an IP. Attached is the log file I had to download via command line, which is something I've never done before, but I had to learn. I've also Googled this issues, but none of the things others have done have helped me. tower-diagnostics-20220922-0153.zip

Will do thank you.

I have not used my UnRaid server for about a year now. I was wondering what would be the best option to proceed? 1) Turn on 2) Do a parity check 3) Update UnRaid Thanks for any input on this matter.

Updated from 6.6.5 to 6.6.6 without any issue. Running parity check at the moment. One thing I noticed, I am able to access Plex outside my network now. When I updated to 6.6.5, accessing Plex outside the network stopped working, and I just got tired trying to fix it, but now after the update and rebooting, it started working by itself.

So, click on update, and it states there's no update. Changed the version, restart and still doesn't update, but there is a new update for Plex. I guess I'll just have to be patient!

Update: I found the issue why Plex was not updating my TV Shows. The container volume was changed by me from having space to no space. As soon as I changed it from /TVShows to /TV Shows, it started working.

Tried to add a new TV episode tonight and Plex refused to acknowledge the new file in season folder. Looked on Plex site and found others complaining about this latest version too. Mods were asking for logs so I load up the appdata share and while drilling in to the folder I noticed a .lock file. Looks like the permissions failed to finish? Anyway I investigate further and find that ALL my TV shows are shown as "unavailable" in Plex. Its like it can't read that share at all. Movies are fine it seems. I removed Linuxserver.io Plex docker and reinstalled Needo Plex docker. Presto chango, all my TV shows are back and it found the new episode. Same version of Plex. Clearly something failed in the switch to Linuxserver.io and failed silently. Having the same issue. Moves are fine, but added new TV Show files, and it won't update.

Out of interest can you post your mappings, because I thought you weren't using spaces in your share names, which was the cause of the issue that has been fixed. I do use spaces for my TV Shows folder share. mnt/user/Media/TV Shows

It's working now. Thank you. I've been contacted by family members because Plex isn't working all day.

So the solution would be to remove the spaces from your shares. Only thing I can think of right now. I don't think that's going to help since none's version of Plex Media Server will install. Every time I tried to install it, I get an orphan image.

Taking the spaces away, and even putting move spaces doesn't do anything. The issue I've got now, is that I can't install anyone's version of Plex. I keep getting an orphan image!

Attached is my full diagnostic server log. I found out that drive 1 is having some sector issues, but nothing showed up on the dashboard. I will be replacing it later today. However, I don't think this has anything to do with not being to re-instal Plex. Would I need to delete everything related to Plex from the config and appdata folders? I've tried to install LimeTech and 2 other Plex plugins via docker, and I am not able to get to install. Thanks for all the help. tower-diagnostics-20160305-0351.zip

The same issue and error. I also get no docker image for Plex. I only get an orphan image.

I deleted the two orphan images. I added Plex via Community Applications, and I only get another orphan image with Command: root@localhost:# /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/scripts/docker run -d --name="PlexMediaServer" --net="host" --privileged="true" -e TZ="America/Los_Angeles" -v "/mnt/cache/appdata/plexmediaserver":"/config":rw -v "/mnt/user/Media/Movies":"/Movies":rw -v "/mnt/user/Media/TV Shows":"/TV Shows":rw limetech/plex Unable to find image 'Shows:/TV:latest' locally Invalid repository name (TV), only [a-z0-9-_.] are allowed
