Can I make a backup to completely reinstall my unraid system from scratch?

I am going to install Truenas scale as I've been unable to nail down the instability of my thread ripper based system on Unraid.

 

However I'm not completely confident it will go well - the support seems to be pretty dicey.

 

So if I decide to come back to Unraid, is there a way to backup my system before I wipe it that will allow me to basically restore everything to the way it is right now (all my dockers settings, plugins, etc) if I reinstall Unraid?

Make a backup of the unRAID flash drive.  The config folder contains what you need to restore your current settings.  As far as docker containers/plugins you can just restore them from the Apps --> Previous Apps in the GUI after restoring your config folder backup.

 

If you have not already done so, install the CA Backup/Restore Appdata plugin and make a copy of your appdata and store that some place safe.
