  1. Hi, thanks for your help, it is really apprecuated! A few further questions: I would use some hardware from my MP to fill up this project: 4x6TB for RAID (I will make a backup of everything on some external drives, so that I can reformat everything for unRAID.) 1x SSD for caching (2nd needed, according to some guides on youtube?) NVIDIA TITAN X gpu for everything graphic related (could I use this gpu for multiple VM's? Like windows 10 & macOS? Or would you suggest another gpu? are the container running within the VM or completely separately? Regarding maintenance: does the system run stable enough, so that I can update it without checking afterwards that everything is still working, like macOS VM (hackintosh...), settings, permissions etc. Or is there any known "incompatibility" with certain VM's, docker, hardware etc? Is the RAID array itself accessable from every OS, or only with nextcloud/plex etc with the specific client app? right now I used ~10TB of storage from maximum accessable capacity of 18TB, so thats okay. -> using unRAID would allow me to upgrade my HDD's to bigger storage sizes with an automatic rebuild, or is that too tricky if not every HDD has the same size?
  2. Hi, I am not sure if unRaid would be my best option for what I want to do, so I will give you a quick overview of my setup right now: 1x Raspberry Pi Zero --> pihole for network wide adblocking 1x Raspberry Pi 4 (400GB microSD Card) --> homebridge for smarthome devices --> nextcloud for personal cloud usage of documents, rss feed, photos, files, calendar, contacts... --> Plex Server with music library 1x Raspberry Pi 3 ---> homebridge for smarthome devices (certain plugins do not work on the same system 1x Mac Pro (4x6GB HDD RAID5) --> Plex Server with TV Series, Movies --> Photos Library --> Ecoding / Video&Photo Editing 1x iPad Pro --> Daily usage for Mails, surfing, social media etc. My intention is to sell my Raspberry Pi's and Mac Pro and combine everything into one device with unRaid. Run the system headless if possible with the iPad Pro as the "main display" --> 1 Container with pihole --> 1 Container with Plex (accessable from outside of my network) --> 1 Container with nextcloud for personal cloud storage --> hardware power do make some Video/Photo editing (if possible in a macOS environment) Now the question: 1. Is this possible, or would you suggest me something else, which suits my use case in a better way? 2. What hardware would you recommend me on a budget? (Due to performance/price, I would love prefer a Ryzen System 3. If I set it up, is there any maintenance needed, or can I run it 24/7 with no issues? I do not have much experience with container, VM etc. So I would really appreciate any help for easy to follow instructions on how to set up everything, correctly, safe and stable. Thanks in advance for any help, it is much appreciated!
