elmuziko Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 (edited) Good morning everyone, Long time user of unRAID, small time poster (testiment to how pleased I am with the product!) Apologies if something like this has been asked, I did a search and the only result matching my criteria was about getting unraid on the final product. My hardware is due a refresh. I have an intel NUC that's massively overpowered but also crazy noisy so was wondering if I could use this as my base, then attach drives via thunderbolt and have unraid work as normal. Is that a thing? Would unraid accept drives connected via thunderbolt? I was looking at this product as a starting point. https://amzn.eu/d/6VmGQRE It's important that I make my unraid an absolute beast as I have several VM's running on it, so can't just get a "dumb" nas.

Kilrah Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 You would NOT want anything RAID, Unraid is not RAID and needs to see individual drives. Seems this enclosure might support such a mode. But any external interfaces like USB / Thunderbolt are not recommended for the Unraid array. 1 Quote Link to comment
