February 7, 20215 yr Hi! Today I have a gaming PC and one server with truenas. Then I read about the awesome unraid, that I can run both my gaming and server on one pc. Is there any cons about this? This is my hardware and I dont bother about high or ultra graphic: (Ill play PUBG, cs go, and most older games) A320M-DS2 Ryzen 5 2600 16Gb 2133mhz 1070 8Gb Would really love to get rid of one physical pc.
February 7, 20215 yr Community Expert Sorry that no one else has jumped in here to give you some answers. As a point of disclosure, I do not run a VM so I am definitely no expert. First thing, you can not overclock in any manner with Unraid. Second, AMD processors have a few special constraints and require some special BIOS settings with regard to C-states. Third, you will have to dedicate (at least) one Core to Unraid. Fourth, you will need an SSD (as a cache drive) to store the VM on. While it is not an actual Unraid requirement, it is a performance requirement when one is using a VM. This is the link to the official Unraid documentation. There are a couple of sections in it that deal with VM's. https://wiki.unraid.net/index.php/Official_Documentation And if you look further down the forum page to the 'Application Support' section, you will find a couple of sub-forums that are dedicated to the topic of Virtual Machines. Hopefully, my post will prompt a some folks who have much more experience than me to jump in and assist you.
