JonathanM Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Name brand full size usb 2.0 sticks are a much better bet for the Unraid boot stick. USB 3.x sticks have a spotty reputation for compatibility and longevity, and there isn't a difference in speed while running Unraid, since the OS runs from RAM. That said, if you can get the drive to boot and run properly with the trial version, you can simply copy your pro.key file in to the config folder on the flash drive, delete the trial key, and Unraid should walk you through transferring the license to the new drive.
