June 19, 20233 yr I'm using an unassigned devices NVMe drive outside of my array. I am doing this because it just collects security camera footage and I don't really need or want that to hammer on my parity disk. Unfortunately, the USB device does not seem to want to stay on reliably. It drops, seems to be unable to recover, and I have yet to figure out how to get the drive to reappear in Unraid. (a reboot didn't do it) I would like a drive that is reliable and outside of my array because if it disappears out from under the security camera, footage will back up and bad things will happen. Is there a way to make an external disk maintain a reliable connection to my server?
June 20, 20233 yr If you use USB bridge NVMe, pls try different bridge ( use different bridge controller solution ). Best was not use bridge, no empty PCIe ? even those x1 slot ? Edited June 20, 20233 yr by Vr2Io
June 20, 20233 yr Author I moved it to another USB hub and am trying again. Seeing some weird behavior where Nextcloud is unaware of the files on the drive from the previous session. When accessing via Webdav through my windows client I see them. But, nextcloud does not. Any idea why that would happen? My machine is a small ITX build. It's all full with 10 nvme drives. So, trying to use other ports like the USB C.
