marcusah Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Hello, I'm considering options for my business and I need the features of unRaid ( ability to add drives of varying sizes like the Synology Hybrid Raid ) which nobody has created a real alternative to, and I need the features/flexibility of Linux Mint. Before considering buying this setup, just so I understand how this works, this is an entire operating system and not an application? It would make a lot of sense if it could be made into an application that can run on Linux Mint or other Linux Distros akin to Webmin or Cockpit. I can't lose the features I have with Linux Mint 20 on my system and I can't continue without features like unRaid has, kind of a rock and a hard place situation. Thanks for any assistance with making my decision. Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Unraid is a NAS OS that can host VMs and Dockers, so you could have a Mint VM hosted on Unraid 1 Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 I'm sitting here right now watching my home theater VM running Linux Mint hosted on my Unraid server. 1 Quote Link to comment

Just curious, which features specifically would you miss? I ask this because I'm experimenting with Mint in VMs on an Unraid host (both Cinnamon and Xfce) with a view to changing over my day-to-day sofa warrior laptop Quote Link to comment
