I currently use VMware inside Windows 10 and I have set up 22 VM's for the purpose of accessing different accounts via different web browsers and each assigned to different VPN locations via NordVPN. Each Windows 10 VM takes up about 15-20GB space on my M.2 drive. I can comfortably run 8 of them at the same time on my AMD 5900x, 64GB machine.

I would like to move my workflow to my iPad Pro via MyServers plugin on unRAID.

 

- Dockers look very interesting but is it possible to install multiple copies of them (Chrome & Firefox) and have each set up to connect to specific VPN locations?

- Would they retain information between sessions? (browsing history, bookmark bar etc.?)

 

- What would be your recommendation for doing the same but more efficiently via unRAID?

 

Thank you for looking

Hi there,

 

In short, yes, you can do this.  As far as how Docker containers will operate, that would be dependent on the author of the container and whether or not they preserve that data.  We can't speak to how applications will work in containers that we don't personally publish, so you'll need to rely on community support for that, but worse case scenario, you can continue to use your VM-based solution on Unraid using KVM.

 

All the best,

 

Jon
