Yes like you read i was able to unlock the Sempron 145 to AMD Athlon II X2 4450e that was bought 30 euros to a cpu that costs about 60 plus the benefit that now with 2 cores can trasncode on the fly for example

 

Generally speaking, it is NOT recommended that you unlock cores or overclock anything in an unRAID environment.  A server should be reliable first and foremost, and unlocking/overclocking has the potential to undermine that stability.  It will also cause your components to produce more heat and waste electricity.

 

That said, if you need the extra processing power and you are willing to carefully watch your server's performance then carry on.

why sempron 145 was locked from company because makes it cheaper for them not to have different(whatever parts)cpus. I have just unlocked not overclocked. it produces same heat and electricity as a normal AMD Athlon II X2 4450e Processor

Actually reason CPU was locked by AMD is usually because it failed tests as a dual core or higher cpu speeds, so they downgrade it's performance till the cpu operates stable and reliably.  Look at the Phenom x3's.  They came about because of a core failure in the manufacturing process.

 

I agree with Rajahal, you want reliability in a NAS/Unraid environment first.

 

And and Rajahal mentions, monitor the system.  It may be you're really lucky got a good deal.

Heck, I even underclocked my CPU and memory a tad for stability reasons.

solid rock all these days here nothing happened so i will keep it this way
