March 8, 20224 yr Hi, I'd like to download the USB backup to flash a new USB drive (the old one seems to have died). I have searched the manuals, but it seems that I need to access the myserver web-page from the unraid's server interface, which is not available as the server is powered down. Is it possible? Thanks
March 8, 20224 yr Community Expert You can backup the flash drive by plugging it into your PC. You only need the config folder from your backup to get your configuration back on a new install.
March 8, 20224 yr Solution If you mean the backup from My Servers, the backup is available just here on the forums. Wait a few seconds for the file to be generated with the standards files and your specific information and the download starts.
March 10, 20224 yr Please see the docs for instructions on how to restore a backup: https://wiki.unraid.net/My_Servers#Automated_Flash_Backup There are a few additional steps once you've downloaded the zip
March 11, 20224 yr Thank you for your attention. Unfortunately this guidance you sent does not work for me. I tried backing up from an earlier verison, but the flash drive errors. Please see attached pics.

You'll want to review the options here: https://wiki.unraid.net/Manual/Changing_The_Flash_Device
