riggs Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 I have a spare PC at the moment whose hardware is better than what's currently in my Unraid box (4590T, 8GB DDR3 vs 10400, 16GB DDR4). I've read that a CPU/mobo swap is relatively straightforward; backup appdata and USB stick, swap hardware, turn on, profit. However, the spanner in the works is that I'm using a SAS card and was wondering whether that might complicate things. It's an AOC-SAS2LP-MV8. I appreciate that this particular card can cause problems (not that I've experienced any thus far...touch wood), but is there anything extra I might need to keep in mind? Quote Link to comment
