Free Trial shows only 14 days, not 30.

I went to run UnRAID 30 day trial, but realized that it only is showing me 14 days. So is it 14 or 30 days? Thanks.

You have 30 days from the activation day, then it can be extended twice for 15 days each time.

Thanks. I'm aware of this but I never got the 30 days to begin with.

 

How does the trial validate the time? Is it tied to a specific piece of hardware?

I suppose it's based on the server time, but AFAIK it won't start if server time is wrong.

Apparently it's tied to the GUID of the USB key. You can extend it twice for 14 days each after the 30 days. Only thing I can think of is that I used this USB key to trial it once before. I know I did just tinker with it out of curiosity early this year for a few days, so that must be the case.

It is, if you used it before it's now using the fist 15 day extension.
