Keichi Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Hello everyone, I discover the "Pool" feature of UNRAID, and i would like to be sure of its functionning. I think i have no need of a Cache Pool (Parity : two mechanical drives with 1Gbps local network), but i may use Pool feature for : - UNRAID docker (appdata, domains, isos and system folders) - VMs I was thinking of two Pools (for Docker and for VMs) then, with each time two 256gb SSDs. 1/ To be sure : if my pool contains two SSDs, it will use a sort of "mirror raid", so if one SSD fails, i can still manage to rebuild the data ? Right now, i use "VM Backup" to backup my VMs (on a single SSD Pool) in the array, and my Docker files are inside the array. 2/ Each disk inside a pool did not count in the array limit ? (12 drives in my case). Thanks ! Quote Link to comment

Yes, that's the default mode. 1 hour ago, Keichi said: Each disk inside a pool did not count in the array limit ? (12 drives in my case). They do count. Quote Link to comment
Keichi Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 Hello JorgeB, Thanks for the quick reply ! Ok, then i cannot add 2 pools of 2 SSDs with my Plus licence (already have 2 partity + 8 disks). I knew i needed to take the Pro licence directly haha ! Nevermind, UNRAID deserve my money, it is so great ! Thank you Quote Link to comment
