Hello Guys,

 

i could need a bit of help.

 

My USB Stick crashed and i bought a new one, installed the latest Backup(unfortunatly it is half a year old) with the USB Creator and replaced it.

The thing is, UNRAID doesnt start properly.

The Startup-process comes up (where i can chose to run safe mod and stuff) then it seems to start, but it always stops eventually.

See Image attached.

 

Cant get it to work, it will always stop there. 

I already tried a complete new installation on the stick without backup.

Even that doesnt work.

I also tried to copy the raw Data from my Backup to the Stick and ran the Make bootable, but that didnt work either.

 

Someone have a clue what is goin on?

Try a different flash drive.

That did it! Thx

 

WTH, that Stick is brand new, and it works fine as a simple USB Stick in Windows.

What caused this? How did u know?

 

This USB Stick thing bothers me some time.

What is THE BEST Stick i can buy that lasts a long time?

This is my 3 Stick in like 2 years...

I just want one that lasts...

Personally I like the Sandisk Cruzer Blade USB 2.0, but there have been a few reports of fake Sandisk flash drives, don't know if this model is affected, I never was.

okay, thank you.

 

Am i right, that unraid can only handle max. 32GB?

This is not a hard limit - it is quoted due to the fact that the flash drive needs to be formatted to FAT32 and Windows cannot format drives larger than 32GB to FAT32.  You can do this using third party software if you have a larger drive, but Unraid itself only needs about 2GB of space so more is a waste.

Thank you for that Info

 

I ordered another Flash Drives a Kingston Datatraveler with 32GB.

SpaceInvadeOne once tested those, and that should fit.

 

I dont actually know why my other new Stick didnt work...
