Understandinging CPU modes.

I just want to know if I understand correctly. CPU Mode Passthrough, passes thru the CPU as Real vs Emulated the cores that I am using only? or the Entire computer itself?

 

2ndly, if I pay for the highest tier, is that per year? I expect to like this, it seems easy to manage.

Can I run one PASSTHROUGH mode and the rest QEMU? how does that work?

 

 

Thanks

Unclear on what you are asking about CPU, Unraid uses linux standard KVM virtual machine stuff, CPU passthrough exposes features of the host CPU and limits usage to the assigned cores, you can also limit the hosts ability to access cores to keep them exclusively for use by VM's. The VM's motherboard is always emulated, you can pass through select PCIe or USB devices, which excludes them from use by the host.

 

Unraid is a single payment up front, no ongoing payments for the OS license. Licenses purchased 10 years ago are still valid for current releases.
